Hey guys, I need assistance with getting started with this. I am trying to implement sentimental analysis for one of my projects and was referring to the documentation. I executed two of the models directly from their colab implementation, but both of them ran into the same issue. I have attached the screenshots as well. Can someone assist me with what can be the error? Am I missing something important here? please lmk. I am also adding the links to the original code I am using as a reference.

Hi,

Could you please share your full code? The errors are related to code that is not in the links you shared.

Sorry @AdityaDesai17, found the Colab link here and I am going to have a look: https://colab.research.google.com/github/JohnSnowLabs/spark-nlp-workshop/blob/master/tutorials/streamlit_notebooks/ABSA_Inference.ipynb#scrollTo=LWoA7SChHu41

In Spark NLP 4.2.3 release we started restricting the provided number of columns in Python to be similar to Scala. If an annotator expects 2 in previous versions we could have passed 3 columns. We fixed that and unfortunately, there are some examples/demos which were not made carefully so we are going to fix them when they are reported.

I will come back to you regarding your errors. @danilojsl

@AdityaDesai17 can confirm, it's a bug and we will fix it in our next release. Many thanks for reporting these 2 annotators. (#13133)

For the time being, you can install pip install spark-nlp==4.2.2 pyspark instead and you should be fine until we release 4.2.4 to fix this.
