JsonPath: filter by two nested arrays - json

Question

I have a pretty simple JSON Document and want to get all emailAddresses that belong to an 'email'-Contact with a specific source of origin.
This is the JSON:
{
"errors": [
],
"individuals": [
{
"contacts": [
{
"id": "urn:uuid:fb383908-4c4a-a00e-3cd2-1f9acf3caecf",
"origins": [
{
"source": "sourceA"
}
],
"type": "eMail",
"emailAddress": "sourceA#email.com",
"verificationStatus": "verification denied"
},
{
"id": "urn:uuid:fb383908-4c4a-a00e-3cd2-1f9acf3caecf",
"origins": [
{
"source": "sourceA"
}
],
"type": "address",
"verificationStatus": "verification denied"
}
],
"id": "urn:uuid:cebb2e06-8bcf-8125-2eee-bb04f8965bcd"
},
{
"contacts": [
{
"id": "urn:uuid:fb383908-4c4a-a00e-3cd2-aaaaaaaaa",
"origins": [
{
"source": "sourceB"
}
],
"type": "eMail",
"emailAddress": "sourceB#email.com",
"verificationStatus": "verification denied"
},
{
"id": "urn:uuid:fb383908-4c4a-a00e-3cd2-aaaaaaaaa",
"origins": [
{
"source": "sourceB"
}
],
"type": "address",
"verificationStatus": "verification denied"
}
],
"id": "urn:uuid:cebb2e06-8bcf-8125-2eee-bbbbbbbbbbbb"
}
]
}
And this is the JsonPath i have come up with:
$..contacts[?(#.type == 'eMail' && #.origins[?(#.source=='sourceA')])].emailAddress
In my mind this should only return one email address, namely sourceA#email.com but i always get both addresses.
Where is my mistake?
PS: sorry for the title, i honestly did not know how to phrase this better

Answer 1

Use the index position for origins instead of using nested expressions.
$..contacts[?(#.type == 'eMail' && #.origins[0].source =='sourceA')].emailAddress
If you are using Jayway JsonPath you can use filter operators like contains
$..contacts[?(#.type == 'eMail' && #.origins[*].source contains 'sourceA')].emailAddress
OR in
$..contacts[?(#.type == 'eMail' && 'sourceA' in #.origins[*].source)].emailAddress
OR empty
$..contacts[?(#.type == 'eMail' && #.origins[?(#.source=='sourceA')] empty false)].emailAddress
