Parse JSON Field
The Parse JSON Field rule converts a field containing a JSON string into a JSON object.
When to Use
- A structured payload is embedded as an escaped JSON string.
- Later rules need to target values inside that payload.
- You want parsed values available as searchable attributes.
Fields
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Name | Yes | Rule identifier |
| Source Field | Yes | Field containing the JSON string |
| Merge / Overwrite | Yes | Whether parsed keys merge with or replace destination content |
| Destination Field | Yes | Field that receives the parsed object |
| Keep / Delete | Yes | Whether to retain the original source field |
Place this rule before rules that need the parsed attributes. If Protect targets one of those attributes, use its flattened path and keep Protect last.
