I have an update component I want to only send the changed form values to some backend update endpoint. For some reason if I update only one form input the rest of the values appear. I had implemented a way to check empty form values and remove them from the payload object `shown below in .ts file` which works but now I want to only detect changed form values & only send them. Which convenient method should I use to resolve this?

**TS File**

```
this.form = this.fb.group({
  business_name: new FormControl(''),
  business_activity: new FormControl(''),
  business_id: new FormControl(''),
  pin_number: new FormControl(''),
  activity_code: new FormControl(''),
  po_box: new FormControl(''),
  town: new FormControl(''),
  physical_address: new FormControl(''),
  plot_number: new FormControl(''),
  contact_person_name:  new FormControl(''),
  contact_person_phone:  new FormControl(''),
  applicantName: new FormControl(''),
  sub_county_name: new FormControl(''),
  ward_name: new FormControl(''),
  applicantPhone: new FormControl(''),
  licenseActivity: new FormControl(''),
  fee: new FormControl(''),
});

onClickUpdate(){
    const payload = this.form.value;
    // Remove empty string
    Object.keys(payload).forEach((key) => (payload[key] === '') && delete payload[key]);
    console.log(JSON.stringify(payload))

}

```
