So I was recently working on a test project and I needed some JSON data. Instead of hooking my application to the SQL Server environment, I created the data from the tables that already existed in SQL.
Using SSMS, I simply appended the following command to my SELECT
FOR JSON AUTO
For example,
SELECT TOP (1000) [VehicleId]
,[Make]
,[Model]
,[Year]
,[Color]
,[Available]
,[CustomerId]
,[Miles]
,[InvoiceId]
,[SalespersonId]
FROM [StithAutoGroupDb].[dbo].[Vehicles]
FOR JSON AUTO
The result
JSON_F52E2B61-18A1-11d1-B105-00805F49916B
[
{
"VehicleId": 1,
"Make": "Toyota",
"Model": "Camry",
"Year": 2021,
"Color": "Blue",
"Available": true,
"CustomerId": 3,
"Miles": ""
},
{
"VehicleId": 2,
"Make": "Honda",
"Model": "Civic",
"Year": 2020,
"Color": "Black",
"Available": false,
"CustomerId": 1,
"Miles": "55826"
},
{
"VehicleId": 3,
"Make": "Ford",
"Model": "F-150",
"Year": 2022,
"Color": "Red",
"Available": true,
"CustomerId": 4,
"Miles": ""
},
{
"VehicleId": 4,
"Make": "Chevrolet",
"Model": "Malibu",
"Year": 2019,
"Color": "White",
"Available": false,
"CustomerId": 2,
"Miles": ""
},
{
"VehicleId": 5,
"Make": "Tesla",
"Model": "Model 3",
"Year": 2023,
"Color": "Silver",
"Available": true,
"CustomerId": 5,
"Miles": ""
},
{
"VehicleId": 6,
"Make": "BMW",
"Model": "iX M70",
"Year": 2025,
"Color": "Black",
"Available": true,
"CustomerId": 1,
"Miles": ""
}
]
That’s it for now. Hope this helps you in your coding journey. Until next time!
