Read a stream as JSON. Supports two read methods: whole file (for smaller responses) and incremental (for large files processed line by line).

​
Fields

​
Read method

  • Whole file — reads the entire response into memory and then processes it. Supports the “Pattern to items” field.
  • Incremental — streams through the file without loading it all at once. Supports the “Path to incrementally read over” field instead.

​
Pattern to items (whole file only)

Dot-notated path to the array within the JSON response that contains the items to process. Each element in the array becomes a separate entity.
  • Leave empty to treat the whole file as a single item.
  • Use data to read items from {"data": [...]}.
  • Use response.products to read items from {"response": {"products": [...]}}.
Note: Do not use * here — this field points to the array itself, not to individual elements. The system automatically iterates over all elements in the matched array.

​
Path to incrementally read over (incremental only)

List of JSON path selectors describing the path to stream over. See the json-decode-stream docs for supported selectors.
