Remove Object from Array of Objects in Json/powershell - json

Question

I am importing JSON into Powershell to replace some values, but I also need to remove some objects from there.
Import:
$fileJson = Get-Content -path/Template.json -Encoding UTF8
I have an array of object which looks like this:
{
"resources": [
{
"name": "name1"
"type": "type1"
"....": "....."
},
{
"name": "name2"
"type": "type2"
"....": "....."
},
{
"name": "name3"
"type": "type1"
"....": "....."
}
]
}
and I want to remove a specific object from this array of objects. For example I want to remove Object where "type" equals "type2".
I have already tried to replace values with .Replace, however I can only replace single values and not the complete object.
Is it possible to delete or skip entire object with condition?

Answer 1

Convert the JSON to a custom object:
$fileJson = Get-Content -path/Template.json -Encoding UTF8
$data = $fileJson |ConvertFrom-Json
Use Where-Object to filter the resources array:
$data.resources = #($data.resources |Where-Object type -ne type2)
Convert the now modified object back to JSON and write to disk:
$data |ConvertTo-Json |Set-Content ./path/to/updatedTemplate.json -Encoding UTF8

I suggest to convert json into PowerShell objects, then make desired changes. then convert back to json if needed.
Example
$root = Get-Content -Path "C:\source.json" | ConvertFrom-Json
$root.resources = $root.resources | where type -eq 'type2'
$root | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 5 | Out-File "C:\destination.json"
