    Hi @Tuomas,

    One way that you can try is to define the columns for each schemas and to append that object to the response documents.

    Schemas columns object example:

    [
    {
        "schema1":['a','b'],
        "schema2":['c','d'],
        "schema3":['e','f']
    }
]

    Also, you can make this as part of a config file.

    Then you can append this object to every document using the Join Snap with the following configuration:

    So, finally you can dynamically filter out the columns from the root object using the following expression in a Mapper Snap:

    $.filter((v,k) => $.get(_schema).indexOf(k) != -1)

    Sample pipeline:
    –sl-comm-dynamic-columns-parameter_2023_05_12.slp (6.8 KB)

    Let me know if this helps you @Tuomas.

    BR,
    Aleksandar.
