Data Types
Hi All,
Does anyone know if it is possible to change the data type of a data source in Domo after it's been uploaded, or does the data type need to be changed before it is uploaded to Domo?

You would need to add a corrected data source, at least as I understand it. Once a data source is uploaded, you can change its name but not the type of data it is. Can you give some specific examples of a data source you would need changed?

It needs to be changed prior to upload.
EDIT: I may be misinterpreting your question. Do you mean transforming a column?

@pmatsumiyaYou can use dataflow to transform your data type after it's been uploaded.
e.g. the alter table statement below can turn the id column to case-senstitve.
ALTER TABLE Account MODIFY Id VARCHAR(15) BINARY;

I would like to change the a column that is currently set as a string into a date format. I need to change it to a date format because my card is viewing the date column as a text. So there is no way I can aggregate by data by Month, week etc.
Also in the same coulum there is a value that is called total. I need to delete that as well. The ETL can do this but I would like to use the MySQL dataflow for this.
