Hi I am testing a new subscripting interface for jsonb, and I found one issue. DO $$ DECLARE v jsonb; BEGIN v['a'] = '"Ahoj"'; RAISE NOTICE '%', v['a']; END; $$; NOTICE: "Ahoj" DO When I use this interface for reading, the jsonb type is returned. What is the correct way for casting from jsonb text to text value? I would not double quotes inside the result. Cast to text doesn't help. For operator API we can use "->>" symbol. But we have nothing similar for subscript API. Regards Pavel
