Hello, thank you for opening this feature request.

We have not yet tested data-diff with records.

Can you please describe the current behavior? Are you getting an error message, or is the diff failing to return the correct results?

Hello

Today, we get just the information that we have a records that seem the be the same (picture above) -

It would be great if data-diff read the columns inside the records and compare them, for example in the table above I have 3 records, in the recors "users". I have all the columns related to a user such as the picture below : Capture d’écran 2022-09-13 à 15 24 47

Thus the idea is to get the columns inside a records and compare them.

If I understand correctly, data-diff currently can diff whole records, and you would like the ability to only diff specific fields inside a record? i.e. diff a subset of a record, instead of everything inside it?
