A slash inside a JSON key is not a path separator | OriginChainDB

Published 22, Oct 2026

OriginchainDB


Description:
The object {"a/b": 7, "a": {"b": 9}} contains both a literal slash key and a nested key. JSON Pointer /a~1b selects 7; /a/b selects 9.

Escape a slash inside a key as ~1 when constructing a pointer token. A two-token path is a different address, not an equivalent spelling.
