+The action will take a specified [[:manual:JSON#JSON_Paths|JSON path]], referencing a location within a variable which contains a JSON object, and set the value.
 For example, with variable “J” containing `{ "first" : "John", "last" : "Smith" }`, the action can set the fist name field `J.first` (or `J{first}`) to a new name.
 The value will be considered a JSON object if it starts with a `[` or `{` and ends with the matching closing bracket and optional white space.  Otherwise, the value will be considered a string (Non-Strict mode), or must be a valid JSON value (Strict Mode).
+If the value is `%Delete%`, then the JSON key or array entry will be deleted (v11.0+).
