Using a JSON field as an id

Hello! I want to cache API results in the database and I was wondering if it'd be possible to use the

id

id

in the JSON field as an id, perhaps through

@@id

@@id

@@id

@@id or some client extension?

Solution

Hello @PIat

You could store the API result in a JSON field and also store the ID you want to use in a separate field marked as

@id

@id

@id

@id. However it won't be possible to skip having an

id

id

field altogether.

You can use a client extension to manipulate the data before saving it to the database. So essentially, getting the

id

id

from JSON and using the same value in the actual

id

id

column
