You need to remove spurious characters first.

| eval "cxlBusinessData.data.body" = replace('c', "\\\n ", "")
| spath input=cxlBusinessData.data.body
| spath input=Message
| table gtin

Since you have escaped embedded JSON, you could try extracting in stages.

| spath
| spath input=body
| spath input=Message

Sounds like your raw event is not pure JSON - please can you share an anonymised version of your raw events in a code block </>

Which field is this data extracted to - for example if it was called body

| spath input=body
| spath input=cxlBusinessData.data.body
| spath input=Message

it gives u the same output like before one if u call body.

my code :

| table cxlBusinessData.data.body

this one gives me the body part(output) only that i attached with the question, but from that body i want data{ gtin} in a separate table. so i can use it further .
