Get keys in JSON


I found that the tilda ~ symbol is able to retrieve the keys of the values it's called upon. So for your example a query like this:

$.*~

Returns this:

[  "key1",  "key2",  "key3"]

Another example, if we had a JSON document like this:

  {  "key1": "val1",  "key2": "val2",  "key3": {      "key31":"val31",      "key32":"val32"  }}

A query like this:

$.key3.*~

Would return this:

[  "key31",  "key32"]

It's important to note that these examples work on JSONPath.com and some other simulators/online tools, but on some they don't. It might come from the fact that I found out about the tilda(~) operator in the JSONPath plus documentation and not the official one.
