### jsoncons::jsonpath::get
```cpp
#include <jsoncons_ext/jsonpath/jsonpath.hpp>
template <typename Json>
Json* get(Json& root, const basic_json_location<Json::char_type>& location); (until 0.175.0)
template <typename Json>
std::pair<Json*,bool> get(Json& root, const basic_json_location<Json::char_type>& location); (since 0.175.0)
```
Gets a pointer to a JSON value in a JSON document at a specified location.
#### Parameters
<table>
<tr>
<td>root</td>
<td>Root JSON value</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>location</td>
<td>A <a href="basic_json_location.md">basic_json_location</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
#### Return value
Until 0.175.0, returns a pointer to the selected item, or null if not found.
Since 0.175.0, returns a `std::pair<Json*,bool>`. If the get operation succeeded, the bool component is **true**, and
the `Json*` component points to the value in the `root`. If the get operation failed, the bool component is **false**.
### Exceptions
None.
