I am trying read an avro file. But it says the below error using the below code.

val expected_avro=spark.read.format("avro").load("avro_file_path")

Error:

Found recursive reference in Avro schema, which can not be processed by Spark:

Below is the sample data:

{
  "type" : "record",
  "name" : "ABC",
  "namespace" : "com.abc.xyzlibrary",
  "doc" : "Description Sample",
  "fields" : [ {
    "name" : "id",
    "type" : "int",
    "default" : 0
  },
 {
    "name" : "location",
    "type" : "string",
    "default" : ""
  }]
}

Is it because we have name twice (one at the root level and one inside the fields section). Any leads on how to get this fixed?

Thanks in advance.
