About this tool: JSON Pointer Explorer
Find a nested JSON value by RFC 6901 pointer, including escaped keys and array indices.
A pointer walks through JSON objects and arrays one segment at a time. Array indices start at zero; ~1 represents a slash in a key and ~0 represents a tilde. An empty pointer returns the whole document, while a missing path produces an error.
How the calculation works
