Let's say that we have a table column called json_data and it contains following values in first two rows:

  1. first row 
    [
    {
        "data": {
            "id": "1"
        },
       "name": "some-id"
    },
    {
        "data": {
            "test-status": "ok"
        },
        "other-name": "test"
    }
]
  2. second row 
    [
    {
        "data": {
            "id": "2"
        },
       "name": "some-other-id"
    },
    {
        "data": {
            "test-status": "ok"
        },
        "name": "other-test"
    },
    {
        "random": {
            "random-key": 2
        }
    }
]

If we want to find all results where data key contains an array with a key test-status and it's value is equal to ok then we need to write a query like this:

Model::whereJsonContains('json_data', ['data' => ['test-status' => 'ok']])->get();
