Hello dear community! Need your help! Given stub to map value from Json request body to Response:

{{{jsonPath request.body '$..paths[1].source'}}}

Copy code

{
  "request": {
    "urlPattern": ".*/transfers",
    "method": "POST"
  },
  "response": {
    "status": 200,
    "body": "{\"id\":  \"{{{jsonPath request.body '$..paths[1].source'}}}\",

Request is a valid Json structure containing this part in its body, and I need to get blablablah2 from request body to return it in response body:

Copy code

{
  "paths": [
    {
      "source": "blablablah1",
      "destination": "blablablah1"
    },
    {
      "source": "blablablah2",
      "destination": "blablablah2"
    }
  ]
}

My issue is that Wiremock returns:

"body": "{\"id\":  \"[\"*blablablah2*\"]\",

and I'd like to get it without [ ]
, any idea why it's happening? Actual:

"body": "{\"id\":  \"[\"*blablablah2*\"]\",

Expected:

"body": "{\"id\":  \"*blablablah2*\",

Hi @Pavel Serada Have you tried something like:

Copy code

{{{jsonPath request.body '$..paths[1].source[0]'}}}

@Pavel Serada I think it is your double

between the

and the rest of the expression. The following returned what you’d expect:

Copy code

"response": {
    "status": 200,
    "body": "{\"id\":  \"{{{jsonPath request.body '$.paths[1].source'}}}\" }"
  }

Copy code

{
  "id": "blablablah2"
}

As for why… I don’t know 🤷🏻

$..

is a query, meaning it always returns a list of results

Whereas a single

indicates a selector, which is potentially only one element.

That’s what OP wants in this case, right? Just one element, instead of a list/array?

Yes, I think your solution is probably the more elegant one!
