How to turn a json array into rows in postgres

I post the answer originally written by pozs in the comment section.

unnest() is for PostgreSQL’s array types.

Instead one of the following function can be used:

• json_array_elements(json) (9.3+)
• jsonb_array_elements(jsonb) (9.4+)
• json[b]_array_elements_text(json[b]) (9.4+)

Example:

select * from json_array_elements('[1,true, [2,false]]')

output value

 -------------
 | 1         |
 -------------
 | true      |
 -------------
 | [2,false] |
 -------------

Here where the documentation for v9.4 can be found.
