javascript const = “filepath” for react project

Full disclosure i have done some Google searching on this but i’m aware i may not be asking the correct questions to find what i’m looking for.

I’m using a react template found on Github for an internal application for work that i intend to utilize for searching a json file.

link for reference – Link

the source file in the example is like this:

const initialDetails = [
  {
    id: 1,
    imgPath: "/assets/img/1.png",
    name: "Jane Doe",
    email: "[email protected]",
    address: "New Delhi, India",
  },
  {
    id: 2,
    imgPath: "/assets/img/2.png",
    name: "Mary Rosamund",
    email: "[email protected]",
    address: "Tbilisi, India",
  },
  {
    id: 3,
    imgPath: "/assets/img/3.png",
    name: "Sherlock Watson",
    email: "[email protected]",
    address: "Baker Street, India",
  },
  {
    id: 4,
    imgPath: "/assets/img/4.png",
    name: "John Holmes",
    email: "[email protected]",
    address: "Baker Street, India",
  },
  {
    id: 5,
    imgPath: "/assets/img/5.png",
    name: "Mycroft Lestrade",
    email: "[email protected]",
    address: "London, India",
  },
];

export default initialDetails;

What i would like to is for the equivalent of const initialDetails = “jsonFilePath”

The file i need to query is updated once a minute.

What is the standard way to perform this type of function?

As i’ve stated, i may not be asking the correct questions needed to obtain this solution through Google so thats what led me here.
