    Hi sunilkumarcm​ 

    SoapUI 5.8.0 uses a newer, stricter JSONPath library than 5.5.0, so some expressions that previously passed may fail. e.g., $..id[0]) now fail.

    • There is no preference, flag, or plugin to revert to the old lenient behavior.

    Practical options are to update JSONPath expressions to the stricter syntax or replace sensitive assertions with Groovy-based checks using custom JSON parsing and There is no compatibility mode that will make all 5.5.0 assertions pass unchanged.
