| [JSON_PRETTY(json_doc)][json_pretty] | Pretty formatting of a JSON document |
| [JSON_STORAGE_SIZE(json_doc)][json_storage_size] | Returns an approximate size of bytes required to store the json value. As the size does not account for TiKV using compression, the output of this function is not strictly compatible with MySQL. |

## Aggregate Functions
