forward slash in property name causing error

The property name - "metadata.labels.app.kubernetes.io/component" in my YAML files is causing below error.

Error: Error: Lexical error on line 1. Unrecognized text.
...ls.app.kubernetes.io/component
-----------------------^

Is there an escape character that I can use for the forward slash in the property name?

I tried below code - based another closed issue

update service-creation.yaml files for deployment

- name: Update values.yaml
  uses: fjogeleit/yaml-update-action@main
  with:
    valueFile: 'deployment/service-creation.yaml'
    commitChange: false
    changes: |
      {
        "metadata.labels.app": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}",
        "$['metadata.labels.app.kubernetes.io/component']": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}",
        "$['metadata.labels.app.kubernetes.io/instance']": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}",
        "$['metadata.labels.app.kubernetes.io/name']": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}",
        "metadata.name": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}",
        "metadata.namespace": "${{ inputs.AroProjectName }}-${{ inputs.Envrn }}",
        "spec.selector.deployment": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}"
      }

The workflow didn't throw an error, but the value for three properties with / character didn't update.

I think it shoud look like:

- name: Update values.yaml
  uses: fjogeleit/yaml-update-action@main
  with:
    valueFile: 'deployment/service-creation.yaml'
    commitChange: false
    changes: |
      {
        "metadata.labels.app": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}",
        "metadata.labels['app.kubernetes.io/component']": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}",
        "metadata.labels['app.kubernetes.io/instance']": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}",
        "metadata.labels['app.kubernetes.io/name']": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}",
        "metadata.name": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}",
        "metadata.namespace": "${{ inputs.AroProjectName }}-${{ inputs.Envrn }}",
        "spec.selector.deployment": "${{ inputs.ApplicationName }}"
      }

Great, it worked.
