Hey @Rakesh007 

I faced a similar issue a few months ago with this library:

I assume you’re currently using Unity Catalog — it seems to introduce some compatibility issues, and unfortunately, the library hasn’t been updated to address them yet.

Anyway make sure that you got it avaiable in allowed JARs/Init Script  inside Catalog>Metastore>allowed JARs/Init Script

Hope this helps! 🙂

Hi @Rakesh007, Good Day!

This seems to be a compatibility issue with the Apache Spark version, as the DBR 15.4LTS supports 3.5.0. Please try installing the below version and let us know how it goes?

Version: com.crealytics:spark-excel_2.12:3.5.0_0.20.3

Reference:

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.crealytics/spark-excel_2.13/3.5.0_0.20.3
