Thank for your replies, I will use "=any(params list)" in psycopg3

The second question is: if psycopg3 is going to do the automatic cast of
the types, will it be able to distinguish between a json and a list of
values?.
Example:

data = ["a", "b", "c"]
idList = [4,7,2]

cursor.execute("update mytable set jsfield=%s where id = any(%s)",
(data, idList))

What will be the correct syntax in this case?

Thanks,
