How do I use JMESPath to query values in a list?

Question

Given the following structure,

{
    "Imports": [
        "network-secgrp", 
        "bastion", 
        "network-nacl"
    ]
}

How do I get JMESPath to only output the values that start with network?

Answer 1

With

Imports[?starts_with(@, `network`)]

You will have

[
  "network-secgrp",
  "network-nacl"
]

I recommend you to use this editor http://jmespath.org/

It is a great playground :)
