Given the exact JSON

{
  "Name": "ABC",
  "Item_Id": "<EmployeeId>",
  "Status_Id": "Received",
  "Points": 5
}

your JSONPath should work fine, provided that the property name, scope and value are correct:

[?(@.Item_Id=='${#TestCase#EmployeeId}')].Status_Id

 

If the object you are testing is nested inside another object, such as:

{
  "something":
  {
    "Name": "ABC",
    "Item_Id": "<EmployeeId>",
    "Status_Id": "Received",
    "Points": 5
  }
}

you need to specify the path from the root object, e.g.:

$..[?(@.Item_Id=='${#TestCase#EmployeeId}')].Status_Id

 

If you post the exact JSON, we could give a more precise answer.
