4.3. replace

4.3. replace

The "replace" operation replaces the value at the target location with a new value. The operation object MUST contain a "value" member whose content specifies the replacement value.

The target location MUST exist for the operation to be successful.

For example:

{ "op": "replace", "path": "/a/b/c", "value": 42 }

This operation is functionally identical to a "remove" operation for a value, followed immediately by an "add" operation at the same location with the replacement value.
