JSONPath Tester

JSONPath Tester – Query and Extract Data from JSON Instantly

Working with JSON has become a daily task for developers, testers, and data professionals. Whether you are dealing with API responses, configuration files, or nested datasets, extracting specific values from JSON can be tricky without the right tools. JSONPath, often described as the XPath equivalent for JSON, is a query language that allows you to select nodes, filter arrays, and navigate complex JSON structures with ease.

Our free JSONPath Tester Tool gives you the power to test JSONPath expressions directly in your browser. With it, you can paste any JSON data, enter a JSONPath query, and instantly view the matching results. No installations, no libraries, and no guesswork. Just clean, accurate JSON querying made simple.

Why Use a JSONPath Tester?

1. API Debugging
   Quickly extract only the required fields from complex API responses.
2. Learning and Experimentation
   Perfect for students and professionals who want to master JSONPath syntax.
3. Automation and Testing
   QA engineers can verify specific nodes in JSON test data without parsing entire files.
4. Data Analysis
   Analysts can filter nested structures, arrays, and conditional values for quick insights.

Common JSONPath Examples

• $..author – Returns all authors in the JSON.
