JSON_ARRAY_CONTAINS_<type>

This is a set of three JSON functions, which return true if the given value is contained in the JSON array.

JSON arrays are lists in this form:

["alpha", "beta", "gamma"]
["alpha", 1, 2, 3]

  • JSON_ARRAY_CONTAINS_DOUBLE is for all numeric data. Javascript has only one numeric type.

  • JSON_ARRAY_CONTAINS_STRING is for all text and binary types.

  • JSON_ARRAY_CONTAINS_JSON is for all valid Javascript types, including true, false, JSON maps, and lists.

JSON_ARRAY_CONTAINS_<type>(json, value)

Arguments

  • json: a valid JSON array, or the name of a JSON column.

  • value: the value to search.

Return Value

  • 1 (SQL TRUE) if the given JSON array contains a top-level element comparing equal to the specified value.

  • 0 (SQL FALSE) if the specified value is not present, or if the specified value is SQL NULL.

  • SQL NULL if json is not a valid JSON array.

SELECT JSON_ARRAY_CONTAINS_STRING('["alpha", "beta", "gamma", "delta"]', 'delta') AS has_delta;
