Hi, I have received a JSON file to translate and I would only like to translate the default message text. To do this, would I click on Parser>Specify rules for extracting? If so, is anyone able to suggest a rule so that only the default message is translated and not the description? Thanks in advance!

Correct, otherwise you get them all. Unfortunately the out of the box filetype isn't very friendly and doesn't extract the rules so you can decide which ones you want... which would be much more user friendly. So you need to define the rules yourself. A good site to start with would be this one:

Simple rule:
$..defaultMessage
Added here:
But this is based on me creating a test file from the very little I can actually see:
Translate
{
"account.password.error.policy": {
"defaultMessage": "Your password isn't compliant...",
"description": "Password needs 1 capital letter, 2 turtle doves and a ...."
}
}
It always helps to provide a test file when you need help like this. It's much easier for you to take a snippet of the actual code and then obfuscate the text if it's confidential. All we need is the structure.
