DataIku changes storage types in prepare recipe

Levos

Hi, for some reason, Dataiku automatically changes some of the data storage types.

For example, a string feature which holds a number (e.g. '123456789') is turned into bigint.

As I'm working on a dataset with about 500 features, finding and fixing all undesired changes is not feasible.

Can I instruct Dataiku not to change data types?
