JSON_KEYS

Syntax

JSON_KEYS(json_doc[, path])

Description

Returns the keys as a JSON array from the top-level value of a JSON object or, if the optional path argument is provided, the top-level keys from the path.

Excludes keys from nested sub-objects in the top level value. The resulting array will be empty if the selected object is empty.

Returns NULL if any of the arguments are null, a given path does not locate an object, or if the json_doc argument is not an object.

An error will occur if JSON document is invalid, the path is invalid or if the path contains a * or ** wildcard.
