I am not seeing the reported error – can you share a complete snippet showing the issue?

This works fine for me with streamlit 1.25.0

import streamlit as st
import pandas as pd


def get_data() -> pd.DataFrame | None:
    data = st.sidebar.file_uploader("Choose an Excel file", type=["xlsx"])
    if data is not None:
        return pd.read_excel(data)
    return None

df = get_data()

st.write(df)
