Update set in foreachBatch

I need to track codes of records that were ingested in foreachBatch function, and pass it as a task value, so downstream tasks can take actions based on this output. What would be the best approach to achieve that? Now, I have a following solution, but I can see that sometimes it just doesn't fill the set, and I can that task value "codes" is just empty...

 

 

codes = set()

def foreach_func(df, batch_id):
    codes.update({ code.ColCode for code in df.select("ColCode").distinct().collect() })

    # Additional logic of inserting df data into tables
    ...
    ...
    ...
    


(
input_df.writeStream
    .trigger(availableNow=True)
    .format("delta")
    .outputMode("append")                    
    .option("checkpointLocation",checkpoint_location)   
    .option("badRecordsPath", errors_path)
    .foreachBatch(foreach_func)
    .start()
    .awaitTermination()
)

dbutils.jobs.taskValues.set(key = "codes", value = list(codes))

I found it is related to a Shared cluster mode. When I use single user mode it all works fine. Furthermore, using Accumulator is not helping....
