jsonPath
Description: The jsonPath function generates a string by evaluating the Subject as JSON and applying a JSON path expression. An empty string is generated if the Subject does not contain valid JSON, the jsonPath is invalid, or the path does not exist in the Subject. If the evaluation results in a scalar value, the string representation of scalar value is generated. Otherwise a string representation of the JSON result is generated. A JSON array of length 1 is special cased when [0] is a scalar, the string representation of [0] is generated.
