I’m having an issue with JSON requests in Postgres and was wondering if anyone had an answer.
I have an orders table with a field called “json_data”.
In the json data there is a plan’s array with an id value in them.
{ "plan”: { “id”: “1” } } }
I can do regular queries that will work, like so:
SELECT json_data->>’plan'->>’id' as plan_id FROM orders;
But if I try to query on the data that is returned it will fail:
SELECT json_data->>’plan'->>’id' as plan_id FROM orders WHERE plan_id = 1;
OR
SELECT json_data->>’plan'->>’id' as plan_id FROM orders GROUP BY plan_id;
OR
SELECT json_data->>’plan'->>’id' as plan_id FROM orders ORDER BY plan_id;
Is this something that has been overlooked? or is there another way to go about this?
I’ve tried everything from the documentation here:
I’ve attached a json dump of the orders table.
Thanks in advance,
Joey
