Syntax	Description	Example
$	Root object/element	$
@	Current object/element	@.name
. or []	Child operator	$.store.book or $['store']['book']
..	Recursive descent (all child elements)	$..book

[start:end:step]	Array slice	$..book[0:2]
[?(@.property)]	Filter by property existence	$..book[?(@.isbn)]
[?(@.prop comparator value)]	Filter by comparison	$..book[?(@.price < 10)]
[index]	Array index access	$.store.book[1]

$.path[?(expression)]	Filter with expression	$.store.book[?(@.price > 10 && @.category === 'fiction')]

Note: This implementation uses the modern jsonpath-js library which also provides path information alongside matched values. Toggle "Show paths" to see the exact path that led to each match.

About JSONPath-JS

This tool implements the JSONPath specification according to RFC 9535, allowing precise path traversal and filtering of JSON data structures.

// Example usage
const query = new JSONPathJS("$.store.book[*].author");
const result = query.find(jsonData); // Values only
const paths = query.paths(jsonData); // Values with paths
