Karate - GraphQL - Validating nested JSON with arrays

Question

I am having newb trouble validating nested JSON with arrays. I have a GraphQL query that looks like this, it is the simplest of the ones I have. I have changed the data as it is real production data but obv you can get the idea. I realize from previous chats with @petersmith that * match results contains is a great way to go and I have also tried reading from a .json file but I must be formatting the json file wrong or something is off because I get error messages about javascript evaluation failed or no data found, etc. I really just want to validate the datatypes, that the fields exist at all (claimNumber, claimStatus, totalPatientResponsibility, providerName, and memberName) and I want to pass in an invalid and/or null memberNumber and watch how it reacts. These seem so simple but I have only done it with REST and Cucumber using Ruby so now I seem to be having trouble. Thanks!

    {

      getClaimHeadersList(memberNumber:"1111111111") {
        claimNumber
        claimStatus
        totalPatientResponsibility
        providerName
        memberName
      } 
}

The response back is the following:

    "getClaimHeadersList": [
        {
            "claimNumber": "01-010111-111-11",

You can paste the entire section below into a fresh scenario and see it work.
