@seg1129 switched the datasource from prod to test in the test environment for the BRP, UI testing looks good, I'll do a code review later today to ensure that the issue we are seeing in metadata difference won't cause an issue. The difference we are currently seeing is coming from the checkbox metadata. There may be some additional spaces to increase readability coming from the redcap api in this upgrade. I don't believe datasources uses whitespace to parse any checkbox fields, but I will check. So far, this is looking like a non-issue.
