FAQ

What is a JSON path?
A dot or bracket notation that pinpoints a value in a JSON document, like $.users[0].name.
Is my JSON sent anywhere?
No. All processing happens in your browser.
How do I find the JSON path to a specific key?
Paste your JSON, choose Search by key and type the key name. The finder lists every matching path (e.g. $.users[0].name) with its value type, ready to paste into jq or your code.
What syntax does the query support?
Dot notation (store.books.title) and bracket notation (store[0].name). Both work for nested objects and arrays.
Can I query large JSON files?
Yes, all processing runs in your browser. Very large files (10 MB+) may take a moment to parse.
