Convert JSON array string to table of integer values using SQL!

In SQL Server, the OPENJSON function is typically used to parse JSON objects or arrays. If you have a JSON array containing a list of integer values, you can use OPENJSON to extract those values. Here’s an example:

Let’s assume you have a JSON array like this:

[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

You can use OPENJSON as follows:

DECLARE @json NVARCHAR(MAX) = '[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]';

SELECT value AS IntegerValue
FROM OPENJSON(@json) WITH (value INT '$');

In this example:

• OPENJSON(@json) parses the JSON array.
• WITH (value INT '$') specifies that we want to extract the integer values and treat them as integers.
• The result is a table with a column named IntegerValue containing the individual integer values from the JSON array.

Adjust the variable and column names according to your specific needs.
