Hello, I have complex JSON being written to Splunk and want to do XSD schema validation on the JSON, this is to ensure that JSON is not corrupted for some fields missing or out of order, what is the best way to do this ?

Below is the JSON request which has XSD schema and validation needs done:

     "TestTransaction":{
     "OrderEntryType":141,

     }
     ],
