Examples

Example

Inserts or updates data in a JSON document and returns the result. Returns NULL if json_doc or path is NULL, or if path, when given, does not locate an object. Otherwise, an error occurs if the json_doc argument is not a valid JSON document or any path argument is not a valid path expression or contains a * or ** wildcard.
