Bug Description

when trying to preview a parquet. I encounter this error:

{
"name": null,
"message": ""invalid schema for type: DECIMAL, for Column: MyColumn, can not handle precision over 18""
}

the column MyColumn data type is money in the underlying sql server database. the parquet file was generated from the ADF Copy activity the parquet file seems valid.

As a side note while there is an error shown in the activities tab. the preview u/i shows the message "No Data" this is potentially misleading and I feel like it should say something like "Error Encountered" as no data implies at least to me that the file was empty.

here is a screenshot for context:
