Syntax for using json_tuple() for accessing array elements in JSON

[A A]

Hi All,

Iam using hive-0.7.0.
I want to use some like : 

eg:
select a.timestamp, b.*
from log a lateral view json_tuple(a.appevent, 'eventid', 'eventname') b as f1, 
f2;

For array elements in JSON.

So I tried something like json_tuple(a.appevent, 'arr[0].property1', 
'arr[1].property1').

However it always returns NULL.

IS this supported? Or should I revert back and use get_json_object()?

Thanking you in advance.

Regards,
A.
