In XPath 3.1 you can use the deep-equal() function, but I don't know for sure whether that works in MarkLogic. Also it doesn't "find the difference", it just tells you whether they are equal. – Michael Kay May 08 '22 at 18:50

To compare 2 JSON Objects, you could just use The following function:
const areTheSame = (foo, bar) => JSON.stringify(foo) == JSON.stringify(bar);
// Example:
areTheSame({foo: 'bar'}, {foo: 'bar'}) // true
EDIT: As i mentionned, you cannot find the difference of 2 Objects... Good Luck!

That's not going to work, because the order of entries in a map/object when stringified is undefined. – Michael Kay May 08 '22 at 18:49
