OBJECT_PICK¶

Returns a new OBJECT containing some of the key-value pairs from an existing object.

To identify the key-value pairs to include in the new object, pass in the keys as arguments, or pass in an array containing the keys.

If a specified key is not present in the input object, the key is ignored.

Syntax¶

OBJECT_PICK( <object>, <key1> [, <key2>, ... ] )

OBJECT_PICK( <object>, <array> )

Copy

Arguments¶

object: The input object.
key1, key2: One or more keys identifying the key-value pairs that should be included in the returned object.
array: Array of keys identifying the key-value pairs that should be included in the returned object.

Returns¶

Returns a new OBJECT containing the specified key-value pairs.

Examples¶

The following example calls OBJECT_PICK to create a new object that contains two of the three key-value pairs from an existing object:

SELECT OBJECT_PICK(
    OBJECT_CONSTRUCT(
        'a', 1,
        'b', 2,
        'c', 3
    ),
    'a', 'b'
) AS new_object;
+------------+
| NEW_OBJECT |
|------------|
| {          |
|   "a": 1,  |
|   "b": 2   |
| }          |
+------------+

Copy

In the example above, the keys are passed as arguments to OBJECT_PICK. You can also use an array to specify the keys, as shown below:

SELECT OBJECT_PICK(
    OBJECT_CONSTRUCT(
        'a', 1,
        'b', 2,
        'c', 3
    ),
    ARRAY_CONSTRUCT('a', 'b')
) AS new_object;
+------------+
| NEW_OBJECT |
|------------|
| {          |
|   "a": 1,  |
|   "b": 2   |
| }          |
+------------+
