Please describe what you are trying to do.**\nPrior to this [PR](https://github.com/apache/datafusion/pull/19549) we couldn't drop qualified columns.\n\n**Describe the solution you'd like**\nIt would be nice to add this to the python docs. For instance we could demonstrate the ability\nto drop a duplicated column by name now based on the discussion [here](https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python/issues/1305#issuecomment-3649873478).\n\nIt would potentially be nice to map `df.find_qualified_cols` to `df.cols`/`df.col` similar to how pyspark manages dropping ambiguous columns\n\n**Describe alternatives you've considered**\nI haven't really considered other options beyond the SQL appraoch in the full join issue discussion. This landed in core datafusion so mostly making this issue to expose it here since datafusion-python motivated it.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/ntjohnson1","@type":"Person","name":"ntjohnson1"},"datePublished":"2026-01-16T14:19:17.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/1340/datafusion-python/issues/1340"}
