5 JSON restrictions p. 8
5.1 Supported JSON documents p. 8
A JSON document (JSON text) is a serialized JSON value (Section 2 of RFC 8259). A JSON value is a JSON object, a JSON array, a number, a string or any of the three literal names true, false or null.
A Jex expressions can be applied only against documents containing a single JSON object. All other values or any combination of values (at the top level) are not supported.
The following example document is valid. It contains a single JSON object.
The next document is not supported for use with Jex expressions, though it is a valid JSON document. It contains a JSON array at the top level.
5.2 Supported JSON arrays p. 8
A JSON array consists of an ordered list of array items. Each array item can be a scalar value, a JSON object, or a JSON array. According to Section 5 of RFC 8259 there is no requirement that the values in an array are of the same type.
Jex supports only arrays with the following properties:
- The array items of an array are all of the same type.
- Array items can be only scalars or JSON objects, but not JSON arrays.
