title: Extract json in an array in Jmeter
body: <p>How do I extract the json object <code>name</code> from the below <code>json data</code> in <strong>Jmeter</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>[
  :   {
  :   :   "name":"x",
  :   :   "age":"50",
  :   :   "gender":"Female"
  :   }
  ]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am doing this <code>$..name</code> in the JsonPath Extractor which is giving me this in the variable I extracted to</p>
  
  <pre><code>name=["x"]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a way I could just get <code>name=x</code> without the array format</p>
  
  <p>Or is there a way I can extract just the <code>x</code> from <code>["x"]</code>?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
