How to search JSON data in MySQL?

If you have MySQL version >= 5.7, then you can try this:

SELECT JSON_EXTRACT(name, "$.id") AS name
FROM table
WHERE JSON_EXTRACT(name, "$.id") > 3

Output:

+-------------------------------+
| name                          | 
+-------------------------------+
| {"id": "4", "name": "Betty"}  | 
+-------------------------------+
