I wanted to test a json file locally with command (in bash)curl "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users" | jq by following this tutorial video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrjIVepRqPI

I followed each step and added the executable file in the env variable path, but not working at all, I got result:

$ curl "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users" | jq
bash: jq: command not found

  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current

curl: (23) Failed writing body (795 != 1369)

Am I missing anything? Why I still got error bash: jq: command not found??

You can run a jq.exe from git bash.

You only need to install it in your git bash PATH:

curl -L -o /usr/bin/jq.exe https://github.com/stedolan/jq/releases/latest/download/jq-win64.exe

Then jq will work with your pipe command.
