How do I view the content of a blob field in MySQL?

In MySQL, you can use the HEX function to view the contents of a BLOB field. Here is an example:

SELECT HEX(blob_column) FROM table_name WHERE condition;

In this case, `blob_column` is the column name for a BLOB field, `table_name` is the table name, and `condition` is the statement used to specify conditions. This will return a hexadecimal representation of the content in the BLOB field. If you need to convert it back to the original binary or another format, you can use MySQL’s built-in functions for conversion, such as the UNHEX function.

SELECT UNHEX(HEX(blob_column)) FROM table_name WHERE condition;

This will return the raw binary representation of the content in the BLOB field.
