             Summary: Support JSON built-in function for JSON_ARRAY
                 Key: FLINK-37374
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-37374
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Table SQL / API
            Reporter: Gustavo de Morais
            Assignee: Gustavo de Morais
             Fix For: 2.1.0


It is currently not possible to declare a SQL string that contains existing 
JSON as valid JSON for JSON_OBJECT. Something like 


{code:java}
JSON_OBJECT(KEY 'K' VALUE '\{"value": 42}') returns  \{"K", "{"value": 42}"}
{code}


Where the value is a string a not a json object.



We should support the JSON() function, at least initial support for it until 
this function returns the JSON datatype. 

 

Example:
{code:java}
jsonObject(JsonOnNull.NULL, "nested", json('{"value": 42}'))
JSON_OBJECT(KEY 'K' VALUE JSON('{"value": 42}'))
// {"nested":{"value":42}}{code}
