In a json if I want to search for a key which could be at any level and multiple places, how do I do it. Example I have below JSON. In JSON there are places where componentID is present. Each ComponentId is different. I need to search value of that componentId in json and where it matches pick that object in json. This is kind of function which helps to pickup that object out of json based on componentId value. Any module to achieve this or any idea to help on this 

json

  "infra": {
    "config": {
      "rack": [
        {
          "componentId": "xxx-001",
          "model": "xxx",
          "server": [
            {
              "componentId": "server-001",
              "type": "xxxx",
              "model": "xxxx",
              "role": "Management",
              "specificAttributes": ""
............

    "platform": {
      "config": {
        "mgmtser": [{
          "componentId": "sr-001",
          "domainName": "xxxxx",
          "thinDiskMode": true,
          "deployment": "small",
