The following JSON is stored in a VARIANT column called src of the CAR_SALES table:
A user needs to extract the dealership information from the JSON.
How can this be accomplished?
The following JSON is stored in a VARIANT column called src of the CAR_SALES table:
A user needs to extract the dealership information from the JSON.
How can this be accomplished?
To extract the value of a first-level element from a JSON object stored in a VARIANT column in Snowflake, use the colon notation. Therefore, the correct query to extract the dealership information from the JSON stored in the src column of the CAR_SALES table is: select src:dealership from car_sales;.
Insert a colon : between the VARIANT column name and any first-level element: <column>:<level1_element>. https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/querying-semistructured.html
Is it case sensitive?
Column name is case-insensitive but element names are case-sensitive. For example, in the following list, the first two paths are equivalent, but the third is not: src:salesperson.name SRC:salesperson.name SRC:Salesperson.Name

select src:dealership from car_sales;
A. select src:dealership from car_sales;
correct
Use dot notation to traverse a path in a JSON object: <column>:<level1_element>.<level2_element>.<level3_element>. Optionally enclose element names in double quotes: <column>:"<level1_element>"."<level2_element>"."<level3_element>".
