Converting String YYYYMM to Date in Magic ETL
Comments
-
My first intuition is to convert string YYYYMM in beast mode. But it will be really tedious.
My solution:
1.Create a 2nd worksheet using 'Domo Online Form' or uploading a new dataset.
2. This file contains 2 columns.
(For example, old: May 2018, June 2018...
new: 2018-05-01, 2018-06-01...)
The point is to match up the correct months with and correct dates.
3.It will be used as a reference and you can set up a 'Join' in ETL. Eventually you will a new column.
4. Check if it has the correct type. if not, you can convert it by operation 'Set Column Type' in ETL.
Thanks
