Re: Delete values from JSON

Hi,

If it is jsonb type, you can have a look at the documentation : https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/functions-json.html

There are some examples :

jsonb - text → jsonb Deletes a key (and its value) from a JSON object, or matching string value(s) from a JSON array. '{"a": "b", "c": "d"}'::jsonb - 'a' → {"c": "d"} '["a", "b", "c", "b"]'::jsonb - 'b' → ["a", "c"]

jsonb - text[] → jsonb Deletes all matching keys or array elements from the left operand. '{"a": "b", "c": "d"}'::jsonb - '{a,c}'::text[] → {}

jsonb - integer → jsonb Deletes the array element with specified index (negative integers count from the end). Throws an error if JSON value is not an array. '["a", "b"]'::jsonb - 1 → ["a"]

jsonb #- text[] → jsonb Deletes the field or array element at the specified path, where path elements can be either field keys or array indexes. '["a", {"b":1}]'::jsonb #- '{1,b}' → ["a", {}]

Regards

I have looked at the docs, but it doesn't, AFAIU, show how to conditionally delete a key based on its value, and leave other keys in the JSONB not matching the value alone.

I want to delete all keys in the (pseudo) path details.keyInformation[*].dunsNumber if the value is "NaN".
