Settings

Retrieves the value of a node.

  • Enter the key or node path to retrieve multiple nodes or select an existing variable.
    Note: Enter $ in the JSON node key or path field if you want to retrieve the value of a key from the root level of JSON.
    You can select a single record from an array of records and pass an index number to select the specific record from an array. For example,
    {
"CompanyName": "XYZ Inc.",
"CompanyAddress": "NY, USA",
"CompanyPhone": "9876543210",
"CompanyEmployees": [
{
"id": 1,
"first_name": "Hilly",
"last_name": "Triplet",
"email": "htriplet0@earthlink.net",
"gender": "Male",
"ip_address": "152.189.110.100"
},
{
"id": 2,
"first_name": "Nathaniel",
"last_name": "Pagitt",
"email": "npagitt1@google.de",
"gender": "Male",
"ip_address": "54.93.141.163"
},
{
"id": 3,
"first_name": "Lauree",
"last_name": "Gendrich",
"email": "lgendrich2@nba.com",
"gender": "Female",
"ip_address": "117.24.49.36"
},
{
"id": 4,
"first_name": "Ike",
"last_name": "Caines",
"email": "icaines3@adobe.com",
"gender": "Male",
"ip_address": "166.174.181.87"
}
]
}
