How do you push an object into another object when the data within it gets changed? - vue.js

Question

I have a very large array of objects containing various errors logs. There are 1015 objects in total. At the moment I am saving the entire array every time I make a small change to a value in one of the objects. This leads to timeout errors because it takes too long to go through the whole array.
So instead I would like to figure out how I can change it so that the program ONLY saves an object if that object has been changed on the frontend.
So if I have 1015 objects and I only change something in object no. 2, then only object no. 2 should be saved on submit.
I was thinking, maybe it would be possible to first let the program look for any changes. Then IF a change has occured it will move that particular object to a new (empty) object, which I can then submit.
So, in my code example, I would like to have this function implemented on the computed property "Fields" which has the key "done". This contains a checkbox that sets the value error.done to true or false. So I would like for the program to check if this specific value has changed. If it has changed from true to false or vice versa I would like to send this object to a new object.
eg. if errors.done is set from true to false, then move the changed object to a new object called changedValue.

If I have understood correctly the selected rows correspond to errors.done ? In this case you can just edit the onRowSelected method like this :
onRowSelected(fields){
this.selectedRows.push(fields)
},
Then replace this.errors by this.selectedRows in you're submit method ?
