Custom Query Builder - possible to use parameters for input values (within JSON)

Hi all,

Started working with Custom Queries today.

I’d like to know if it’s possible, and if it is the correct syntax to input a parameter into the schema I am inputting into a JSONB column in postgres.

Example input query:

INSERT INTO cars(cars_info)
VALUES('{"brand": "Toyota", "color": ["red", "black"], "price": 285000, "sold": true}');

Ideally, what I would want to be able to do is replace ‘Toyota’ with :P1 and the expression will come from a previous step.

So far, I’ve tried:

INSERT INTO cars(cars_info)
VALUES('{"brand": ":P1", "color": ["red", "black"], "price": 285000, "sold": true}');

and

INSERT INTO cars(cars_info)
VALUES('{"brand": "(:P1)", "color": ["red", "black"], "price": 285000, "sold": true}');

But the value being entered into the db is :p1 so I’m wondering if this is even possible with Wappler and if I’m just doing it incorrectly, currently…
