To parse a JSON array using jsonpath, you can use the following steps:

  1. Install the jsonpath library: pip install jsonpath-ng
  2. Import the library: from jsonpath_ng import jsonpath, parse
  3. Load the JSON data: data = json.loads(json_string)
  4. Create a jsonpath expression to extract the desired values: expression = parse('$.store.book[*].author')
  5. Use the expression to extract the values from the JSON data: result = expression.find(data)
  6. The result will be a list of matching values.


Note: The jsonpath expression syntax uses the dollar sign $ to represent the root element, square brackets [] to specify an array, and the asterisk * to match all elements in an array.
