How to handle json column changes with getChanges() ?

[dutchman1990]

Hi,

I have two models Model A and Model B where model B is using to store changes in Model A to audit.

Model A has 4 json columns with following casts

protected $casts      = [
        'area_type'      => 'json',
        'area_array'     => 'json'
    ];

If there is a changes in column area_array the getChanges() method returns following data.

[
"area_array" => "[3]"
"updated_at": "2024-07-19 13:45:44"
]

but I want to remove extra quote wrap from area_array so the expected output will be like below.

[
"area_array" => [3]
"updated_at": "2024-07-19 13:45:44"
]

PS: I can not remove casts from Model A.
