ValueError: Unrecognized spark type: DecimalType(20,0)

Dear Support Team,

I am trying to use the ‘expect_column_values_to_be_of_type’ expectation in pyspark for a column of DecimalType. I am facing issues while using the DecimalType with precision and scale parameters.

I am getting following error while using the type as DecimalType(20,0)

{
    "success": False,
    "expectation_config": {
        "expectation_type": "expect_column_values_to_be_of_type",
        "meta": {},
        "kwargs": {
            "column": "project_id",
            "type_": "DecimalType(20,0)",
            "result_format": {
                "result_format": "SUMMARY"
            }
        }
    },
    "meta": {},
    "exception_info": {
        "raised_exception": True,
        "exception_message": "ValueError: Unrecognized spark type: DecimalType(20,0)",
        "exception_traceback": "Traceback (most recent call last):\n  File "/home/spark/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/great_expectations/dataset/sparkdf_dataset.py", line 1196, in expect_column_values_to_be_of_type\n    success = issubclass(col_type, getattr(sparktypes, type_))\nAttributeError: module \"pyspark.sql.types\" has no attribute \"DecimalType(20,0)\"\n\nDuring handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:\n\nTraceback (most recent call last):\n  File "/home/spark/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/great_expectations/data_asset/data_asset.py", line 275, in wrapper\n    return_obj = func(self, **evaluation_args)\n  File "/home/spark/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/great_expectations/dataset/sparkdf_dataset.py", line 1201, in expect_column_values_to_be_of_type\n    raise ValueError(f"Unrecognized spark type: {type_
        }")\nValueError: Unrecognized spark type: DecimalType(20,0)\n"
    },
    "result": {}
}

There is no error while I use the DecimalType as the value (see below)

{
  "exception_info": {
    "exception_message": null,
    "exception_traceback": null,
    "raised_exception": false
  },
  "expectation_config": {
    "expectation_type": "expect_column_values_to_be_of_type",
    "kwargs": {
      "column": "project_id",
      "result_format": {
        "result_format": "SUMMARY"
      },
      "type_": "DecimalType"
    },
    "meta": {}
  },
  "meta": {},
  "result": {
    "observed_value": "DecimalType"
  },
  "success": true
}

I tried searching documentation but could not find similar topic addressing it.
Does great_expectation support the DecimalType with precision and scale parameter?
Could you please provide your feedback on this topic?

Thanks in advance for your support.
