Given the following JSON document:

{
  "Source": "Server-01",
  "Timestamp": "2023-07-25T09:15:32.123Z",
  "Log Level": "INFO",
  "Message": "Application started successfully.",
  "Details": {
    "Service": "AuthService",
    "Endpoint": "/api/login",
    "Response Code": 200,
    "Response Time": 54.21,

"$.Message"                    // Message field
"$.Details.Service"            // Service field
"$.Details.Endpoint"           // Endpoint field
"$.Details['Response Code']"   // Response Code field
"$.Details['Response Time']"   // Response Time field
"$.Details.User['User ID']"    // User ID field
"$.Details.User.Username"      // Username field
