OR clause inside JSON query in Postgres

Question

In Postgres JSONB, is it possible to do something like this:

where (
  description ->'Auditor'->'1'->'Internal|External' is not null
)

Instead of this:

where (
  description ->'Auditor'->'1'->'Internal' is not null
  or
  description ->'Auditor'->'1'->'External' is not null
)

Answer 1

You can check whether a jsonb value has any of a set of keys with ?|:

where description->'Auditor'->'1' ?| array ['Internal','External']
