jsonb_path_exists

Checks whether the JSON path returns any item for the specified JSON value. (This is useful only with SQL-standard JSON path expressions, not predicate check expressions, since those always return a value.) If the vars argument is specified, it must be a JSON object, and its fields provide named values to be substituted into the jsonpath expression. If the silent argument is specified and is true, the function suppresses the same errors as the @? and @@ operators do.

English manual coverage begins with PostgreSQL 7.1. Source history and runtime observations have their own recorded version boundaries.
