How to use Column.isin with list?

Question

sqlContext.sql(\"select c1 from table\")
          .filter($\"c1\".isin(items))
          .collect

Answer 1

Spark has now (since 2.4.0) a method called isInCollection, which is just what you are looking for, instead of isIn.

(shouldn't they unify the methods?)
