This function resides in TD_SYSFNLIB. The ID column of the query result can be any number type or character type excluding CLOB. It is the responsibility of the user to make the ID column unique. If it is not unique JSON_TABLE does not fail, but it is difficult to tell which rows came from which JSON document in the resulting output.

The result is subject to the maximum row size, and the query must not exceed the maximum allowable size for a query.

When a JSON value is shredded to populate a CHAR, VARCHAR, or VARBYTE column, if the size of the value is larger than the size of the target column, the value is truncated to fit the column.
