How to handle schema changes in streaming Delta Tables?

I'm using Structure Streaming when moving data from one Delta Table to another.

How to handle schema changes in those tables (e.g. adding new column)?

Hello,

I think the only way of handling is to mention the schema within the job through a schema file. The other way is to restart the job to infer the new schema automatically.
