Comments
JSONPath is a query language for querying values in JSON. The uses of JSONPath include:
Selecting a specific node in a JSON value
Retrieving a set of nodes from a JSON value, based on specific criteria
Navigating through complex JSON values to retrieve the required data.
JSONPath queries are path expressions written as strings, e.g. $.foo.
The JSON Path field must have a valid JSON Path provided to find the right property.
