It is working using Data-Into YAJL for a base64 ZPL file, which is only 3760 long.
// Label Response From API Call
Dcl-ds LabelResponse Qualified;
success Ind;
warning Ind;
cnt_messages Int(5);
ApiReference1 VarChar(100);
ApiReference2 VarChar(100);
ApiReference3 VarChar(100);
ApiReference4 VarChar(100);
messages VarChar(100) Dim(10);
labeltype Char(10);
base64data VarChar(4096) CCSID(1208);
End-Ds;
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Local Parameters
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dcl-S DecodedLabelBinary SQLType(VARBINARY:4096);
Dcl-S DecodedLabel VarChar(4096) CCSID(1208);
// Parse Response JSON Label Doc Using YAJL
data-into LabelResponse %DATA(ResponseFile
: 'doc=file case=any countprefix=cnt_ allowmissing=yes allowextra=yes')
%PARSER('YAJLINTO');
// Decode
Clear DecodedLabelBinary;
Exec SQL Values QSYS2.BASE64_DECODE(:Labelresponse.base64data) Into :DecodedLabelBinary;
If DecodedLabelBinary <> *Blanks;
DecodedLabel = DecodedLabelBinary;
EndIf;
New problem is a json that contains a base64 PDF that is over 153,000 long.
Trying different data types like SQLType(BLOB : 200000)
I am thinking need to use SQL to consume the json because of the data size.
This is from the debug using Data-Into.
EODREPORTRESPONSE.SUMMARYPDFB64_LEN = 1077952576
EODREPORTRESPONSE.SUMMARYPDFB64 =
....5...10...15...20...25...30...35...40...45...50...55...60
1 ' '
61 ' '
121 ' '
181 ' '
I am a complete novice (some embedded SQL) so figuring out how to SQL to consume the json is my struggle.
I WANT/NEED to learn this. Just trying to figure out what I need to learn.
I will figure this out.

Jerry,
You told us last week you had it working. Can you explain what you are currently struggling with? As far as I can tell, the only way I could answer this post, as posted, would be to write an entire program that does what you describe, and hope it's close enough to what you need. That seems like asking quite a bit.
More specifics, more details, show us the code you've tried, explain why it's not working, etc. This would help a lot.

Does anyone have an example of getting a base64 BLOB element, over 153,000, from a json using SQL?
Once I have the field I can decode it.
Just not figuring out the secret decoder structure to use.
