Description

Hello
I am getting the ValueError: Can't decode base64 when I trying to load a parquet file with

table = rows.import_from_parquet('test.parquet')
for row in table:
    print(row)

The parquet file is an export from a csv file via pandas.to_parquet('test.parquet').

Thanks for the help.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure with rows.import_from_parquet('test.parquet') using a file created by pandas.to_parquet(). Inspect the parquet import path and compare how it handles this file; done means the file loads without the base64 ValueError and its rows can be iterated.
