Free JSONPath Tester

How to Use JSONPath

Paste your JSON data into the input panel and enter a JSONPath expression. Matched results appear instantly in the output panel. Use dot notation (e.g., $.store.book) or bracket notation (e.g., $['store']['book']) to navigate the JSON structure. Wildcards (*) and recursive descent (..) help you search across nested structures.

JSONPath Syntax Reference

JSONPath uses $ as the root element. Use .key for child access, [0] for array indexing, [0:3] for array slicing, * for wildcards, and .. for recursive descent. Filter expressions like [?(@.price < 10)] let you select nodes matching a condition.
