Below code, the snippet can be used to list down the tables in a database

val db = "database_name"
 
spark.sessionState.catalog.listTables(db).map(table=>spark.sessionState.catalog.externalCatalog.getTable(table.database.get,table.table)).filter(x=>x.provider.toString().toLowerCase.contains("delta"))
