Hello team,

I'm encountering an issue with my batch processing job. Initially, I write the job in overwrite mode with overwrite schema set to true. However, when I attempt to write the next batch in append mode, it fails due to a change in the datatype of one column. How can I handle this situation when I don't know the datatypes and don't have an external schema to refer to?
