Description

User is asking for conceptual overview for parsing JSON v2. We could add overview to this page or link to another doc.

Page: https://docs.influxdata.com/telegraf/v1.22/data_formats/input/json_v2/

Feedback: How do I parse something like? {"Pool":{"Sequence":18437,"Temp":78.80,"Humidity":17.00,"HeatIndex":77.18,"WiFiSignal":-19,"Lux":0.00,"InFlow":82.91,"OutFlow":82.72,"Pressure":-0.61,"Memory":25355}}
What is an object? What is a Key? What is a Field? What are the relationships between them? What items will graph?

Research direction

Start with the Telegraf JSON v2 page at docs/influxdata.com/telegraf/v1.22/data_formats/input/json_v2/. Use the reported nested JSON example and the questions about objects, keys, fields, relationships, and graphable items to define the overview. Done means the page includes a conceptual explanation or a clear link to one.
