4.5. copy

The "copy" operation copies the value at a specified location to the target location.

The operation object MUST contain a "from" member, which is a string containing a JSON Pointer value that references the location in the target document to copy the value from.

The "from" location MUST exist for the operation to be successful.

For example:

{ "op": "copy", "from": "/a/b/c", "path": "/a/b/e" }

This operation is functionally identical to an "add" operation at the target location using the value specified in the "from" member.
