Querying CDF on a Delta-Sharing table after data type change in the Table (INT to DECIMAL)

Hi,

I am trying to query the CDF of a Delta-Sharing table that have had a change in data type of one its columns. The change was from an INT to a DECIMAL. When reading the specific version where the schema change happened, I am receiving an error mentioning a conflict between the new schema of the Delta-Sharing (with DECIMAL) and the Parquet file having INT in the column. 

I have tried to add mergeSchema = true but still receiving the same error. 

My question is: is there any way to maintain readability of the CDF of a Delta-Sharing table to which a schema have been changed with a data type change or a full reload of the table is required in that specific instance? 

Thanks!
