How can I pipe jq output

This seems to be a usage question on a general-purpose command-line tool. It seems more appropriate for Super User or Linux & Unix? @XiongChiamiov - I posted here because DevOps seems significantly more likely to interact with JSON/REST and would benefit from 1) knowing about such a tool and 2) it's proper usage. I would categorize this as a *DevOps* command line tool, not general purpose. My devs are far more familiar with these sorts of tools than I am, because they're *building APIs* and thus testing them constantly throughout the day. While that will of course vary from company to company, I still think that curl/httpie/jq/etc. are just general-purpose programmer-y tools, not DevOps-related tools at all.
