Convert json object from string to the object of particular type in the entity view

[adamzrk]

I have @entity with a String field containing json content. Is it possible to convert it into particular object with EntityViews so I do not need to convert it manually?
I've been looking in the documentation but nothing's there. Only information about possibility of jackson integration.

No, there is no automatic conversion support for this kind of conversion. With Hibernate ORM 6+ you can actually map the JSON as embeddable though which can then be mapped and/or projected in the entity view.
