If I try to retrieve a value from a column which typed as UUID I get a Python error: TypeError("a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'") when I call fetchall() on the CursorObject.

Code that raises the error:

import sqlalchemy as sa

def getScheduleData(engine: sa.engine, scheduleID: str) -> dict:
    rows = []
    metadata = sa.MetaData()
    table = sa.Table('schedules', metadata, autoload_with=engine)

    stmt = sa.select(table.c['userID']).where(table.c["ID"] == scheduleID)
    print(stmt)

    try:
        with engine.connect() as conn:
            result = conn.execute(stmt)
            rows = result.fetchall()
            print(rows)
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)

The greater issue is that i want to retrieve all the column values (so a whole row) from the DB because there are several columns which are typed as UUID in the schedules table:

import sqlalchemy as sa

def getScheduleData(engine: sa.engine, scheduleID: str) -> dict:
    rows = []
    metadata = sa.MetaData()
    table = sa.Table('schedules', metadata, autoload_with=engine)

    //all column values
    stmt = sa.select(table).where(table.c["ID"] == scheduleID)
    print(stmt)

    try:
        with engine.connect() as conn:
            result = conn.execute(stmt)
            rows = result.fetchall()
            print(rows)
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)

I found a solution if I only want to retrieve specific values, in this way there is no TypeError:

import sqlalchemy as sa

def getScheduleData(engine: sa.engine, scheduleID: str) -> dict:
    rows = []
    metadata = sa.MetaData()
    table = sa.Table('schedules', metadata, autoload_with=engine)

    //cast the value to string in the statement
    stmt = sa.select(sa.cast(table.c['userID'], sa.String(36))).where(table.c["ID"] == scheduleID)
    print(stmt)

    try:
        with engine.connect() as conn:
            result = conn.execute(stmt)
            rows = result.fetchall()
            print(rows)
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)

But how can I achieve this taking the second scenario into consideration where I want all the rows and there can be several UUID typed values?
