Error when query mySQL table with JSON column

The json data type is only available in MySQL versions 5.7.8 and up.

But here is how it is done:

Code:

CREATE TABLE `e_store`.`products`(
   `id` INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
   `name` VARCHAR(250) NOT NULL ,
   `brand_id` INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL ,
   `category_id` INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL ,
   `attributes` JSON NOT NULL ,
   PRIMARY KEY(`id`) ,
   INDEX `CATEGORY_ID`(`category_id` ASC) ,
   INDEX `BRAND_ID`(`brand_id` ASC) ,
   CONSTRAINT `brand_id` FOREIGN KEY(`brand_id`) REFERENCES `e_store`.`brands`(`id`) ON DELETE RESTRICT ON UPDATE CASCADE ,
   CONSTRAINT `category_id` FOREIGN KEY(`category_id`) REFERENCES `e_store`.`categories`(`id`) ON DELETE RESTRICT ON UPDATE CASCADE
);

/* Let's sell some televisions */
INSERT INTO `e_store`.`products`(
   `name` ,
   `brand_id` ,
   `category_id` ,
   `attributes`
)

VALUES(
   'Prime' ,
   '1' ,
   '1' ,
   '{"screen": "50 inch", "resolution": "2048 x 1152 pixels", "ports": {"hdmi": 1, "usb": 3}, "speakers": {"left": "10 watt", "right": "10 watt"}}'
);

 
The last line is the json being inserted into the table attributes is the json column
