How to move JSON fields in mass effectively?

Question

I have a JSON like this:

{
    "array1": [
      {
        "data": {
          "id": "1",
          "name": "foo",
        },
        "classes": "class1" 
      },
      {
        "data": {
          "id": "2",
          "name": "bar",
        },
        "classes": "class2"
       ...
      }
} 

I want to move all the classes into data object. Using https://jsoneditoronline.org I can only do that for each object individually. I guess I can write a script to do this, but is there a built tool for this?

Answer 1

It seems that regex is the quickest way to do this. Here is how I do:

• Search: ("data".*?)(}.*?)(,"classes":.*?)}
• Replace: $1$3$2}
