Problem in getting json key value in nested json using jq - json

Objective: Trying to get a key's value from a json file using jq function. Input source is a file and need to fetch specific key value to use it in further process of the flow

What I tried:
user#ablab:~$ jq '.name' input.json
jq: error (at input.json:100): Cannot index array with string "name"
user#ablab:~$
How to get key name value from above mentioned json. There is no deeper nested subsection of keys where I need to search. Please help to find how to fix this issue

If you don't want to be bothered with having to figure out the path to the key of interest, and if you don't mind the possibility that there might be several occurrences of a particular key name, then the following one-liner may be worth considering:
.. | objects | select(.name).name

I solved issue with below
user#ablab:~$ jq -r '.[] | .name' input.json

How to add key to json file using powershell

i have a json file like this:
[
{
"DisplayName": "Title1",
"SignInName": null,
"RoleDefinitionName": "Name1",
"RoleDefinitionId": "1111",
"ObjectId": "0111",
"ObjectType": "ServicePrincipal",
"CanDelegate": false,
"Description": null,
"ConditionVersion": null,
"Condition": null
},
{
"DisplayName": "Title2",
"SignInName": null,
"RoleDefinitionName": "Name2",
"RoleDefinitionId": "1111",
"ObjectId": "02222",
"ObjectType": "ServicePrincipal",
"CanDelegate": false,
"Description": null,
"ConditionVersion": null,
"Condition": null
},
{
"DisplayName": "Title3",
"SignInName": null,
"RoleDefinitionName": "Name3",
"RoleDefinitionId": "33333",
"ObjectId": "03333",
"ObjectType": "ServicePrincipal",
"CanDelegate": false,
"Description": null,
"ConditionVersion": null,
"Condition": null
}
]
I need to add a KEY at a start with all this json as a VALUE of that key using powershell script so it would look like this:
{
"ManagedIdentity": [
{
"DisplayName": "Title1",
"SignInName": null,
"RoleDefinitionName": "Name1",
"RoleDefinitionId": "1111",
"ObjectId": "0111",
"ObjectType": "ServicePrincipal",
"CanDelegate": false,
"Description": null,
"ConditionVersion": null,
"Condition": null
},
{
"DisplayName": "Title2",
"SignInName": null,
"RoleDefinitionName": "Name2",
"RoleDefinitionId": "1111",
"ObjectId": "02222",
"ObjectType": "ServicePrincipal",
"CanDelegate": false,
"Description": null,
"ConditionVersion": null,
"Condition": null
},
{
"DisplayName": "Title3",
"SignInName": null,
"RoleDefinitionName": "Name3",
"RoleDefinitionId": "33333",
"ObjectId": "03333",
"ObjectType": "ServicePrincipal",
"CanDelegate": false,
"Description": null,
"ConditionVersion": null,
"Condition": null
}
]
}
I should do it inside one script block, and i am not sure how to figure this out. It is a ready json file that i need to append key to.
The script that gets a file is something like this:
Get-AzRoleAssignment -ObjectId 02222 | ConvertTo-Json
to this short script using pipes i need to append a solution to append the key to the file.

Linux JQ. How to extract data from specific ID Entry

Guy, long term looking at this board and learning a lot but now stuck with little issue. Im working with Linux shell script that reads json (no problem here). What Im trying to do is get value from entry that has specific Type.
By parsing a json with just jq -r '.', I get
{
"records": [
{
"id": 01,
"type": "SOA",
"name": "#",
"data": "1800",
"priority": null,
"port": null,
"ttl": 1800,
"weight": null,
"flags": null,
"tag": null
},
{
"id": 02,
"type": "A",
"name": "#",
"data": "test.com",
"priority": null,
"port": null,
"ttl": 1800,
"weight": null,
"flags": null,
"tag": null
}
],
"links": {},
"meta": {
"total": 2
}
}
Then, I use "jq -r '.records' " and get:
[
{
"id": 01,
"type": "SOA",
"name": "#",
"data": "1800",
"priority": null,
"port": null,
"ttl": 1800,
"weight": null,
"flags": null,
"tag": null
},
{
"id": 02,
"type": "A",
"name": "#",
"data": "test.com",
"priority": null,
"port": null,
"ttl": 1800,
"weight": null,
"flags": null,
"tag": null
}
]
What I need to do is get data value of the type A. Currently, we have type SOA and A, but I need to only get data from A.
I can use dummy way of "jq -r '.records[1].data'" and it gives me correct response of test.com, but I want a more dynamic way of searching for specific type (in this case "A") and then giving the data value.
Thanks guys!
Is the field called domain_records or just records?
Use select to match your criteria
jq -r '.records[] | select(.type == "A").data'
test.com

How to filter JSON array using JQ in shell (STRIPE)?

Hello internet people,
Apparently I had the same problem of many but after searching a lot even here I could not find a reasonable answer at all!
My problem:
On shell I did enter the command:
stripe invoices list --customer MY_CUSTOMER_ID_HERE
Then the following JSON appeared:

I'm able to access the second level with this command:
stripe invoices list --customer MY_CUSTOMER_ID_HERE | [.id,.attempt_count,.billing_reason,.created,.customer,.customer_email,.lines.data[],.paid,.status]'
Which returns a nice response, but I do want to filter few values inside data (data.lines.data[]) like id, plan and inside plan the id, currency and product for example.
My question:
Does any one knows how to do that with this kind of commands?
Just in case, those are the questions and answer that I tried but couldn't figured how to do it at all!

I did also try a lot attempts on my own, like:
stripe invoices list --customer MY_CUSTOMER_ID_HERE | [.id,.attempt_count,.billing_reason,.created,.customer,.customer_email,.lines.data[.id.plan[][.id,.plan[.id,.currency,.product]],.paid,.status]'
Response:
jq: error (at :179): Cannot index string with string "plan"
stripe invoices list --customer MY_CUSTOMER_ID_HERE | [.id,.attempt_count,.billing_reason,.created,.customer,.customer_email,.lines.data[][],.paid,.status]'
This one return a null value for the second data content.
Response:
[
"DESIRED_ID",
1,
"value_retrieved_ok",
unixtime_ok,
"SOME_ID_OK",
"customer_mail#ok.com",
null, <<< ???
true,
"paid"
]
EDIT:
Desired result should look like:
[
"DESIRED_ID",
1,
"value_retrieved_ok",
unixtime_ok,
"SOME_ID_OK",
"customer_mail#ok.com",
"id" // the id inside lines.data{}
["id", // the id inside lines.data.plan
"currency", // the currency inside lines.data.plan
"product" // the product inside lines.data.plan
]
true,
"paid"
]
Anyway I do hope that there's a good soul out there have mercy!
Your requirements are a bit difficult to follow, especially since the "expected output" does not correspond exactly to the given input, but the following is either what you're looking for, or very close to it:
.data[]
| [.id,.attempt_count,.billing_reason,.created,.customer,.customer_email]
+ (.lines.data[] | [.id, [.plan.id, .plan.currency, .plan.product]])
+ [.paid,.status]

How to extract only part in subtasks section
(subtask:true) ?
tried with:
jq -r '.issues[] | .fields.issuetype.subtask' 1.json # and
jq -r '.subtasks[] |.fields.issuetype.subtask' 1.json
but always get false
jq -r '.subtasks[] | .fields.issuetype.subtask' 1.json
jq: error (at 1.json:231): Cannot iterate over null (null)
jq solution:
jq '.issues[].fields.subtasks[].fields | .issuetype.subtask, .summary' 1.json
The output:
true
"Disable user account in Local AD"
With respect to a best-practice mechanism to iterate over output in bash (assuming, here, that the subtask field will never contain a literal tab, and that summary will never contain a literal newline):
while IFS=$'\t' read -r subtask summary; do
echo "Got subtask $subtask and summary $summary"
done < <(jq -r '.issues[].fields.subtasks[].fields
| [.issuetype.subtask, .summary] | #tsv')
If you want to avoid those assumptions, you can do even better by using NUL delimiters, which will correctly handle all values which can potentially be stored in a variable in bash:
while IFS= read -r -d '' subtask && IFS= read -r -d '' summary; do
printf 'Got subtask %q and summary %q\n' "$subtask" "$summary"
done < <(jq -j '.issues[].fields.subtasks[].fields
| (.issuetype.subtask, "\u0000", .summary, "\u0000")')
