JSON File - Split

This property defines which part of the JSON structure should be split into individual child documents.

How It Works

• The JPath expression should point to a repeating structure (typically an array) within the JSON.
• Each item matched by the selector will be extracted and saved as a separate child document.

Examples

• $.records[*] — Splits the JSON into one document per item in the records array.
• $.Invoices[*] — Creates a child document for each invoice.
• $[*] — Splits the top-level array into individual items.

Tips

• Use a path that targets the array you want to iterate over.
• If the JSON is a single object and not an array, leave this blank or use $ to process the whole document.

Notes

• This is similar to how JPath is used in JSON querying tools like SelectToken() in Newtonsoft.Json.
• Invalid or empty selectors will result in no documents being split.
