Hi @Fernando Martin​ if your table is incremental you need to reset the schema manually for complete tables it happens automatically.

Hi @Fernando Martin​,

If you are reading files (JSON, CSV, TXT, etc) then you can use Autoloader. Autoloader will handled your schema changes. The following docs might be able to help https://docs.databricks.com/data-engineering/delta-live-tables/delta-live-tables-incremental-data.ht...
