Hello all,

I get the below error after running my dataflow. As this consists for multiple inputs, I haven't still been able to trace the exact field causing it. But I do have a formula tile with this calculation..

" Failed to convert value '-3--3-01' from type 'String' to type 'Date'. "

Some days this data flow runs successfully with no issues. Once in a while this fails with this error. So trying to understand how to avoid this to fail occasionally.

Appreciate your help!

    You can wrap your beast mode in an IFERROR function to default it to another value if there was an error with your date conversion
