Sheets date format changes to wrong date in DOMO

user046467

For example I've the following date:

12/2/2023 which translates to February 12 2023 when I need it to be December 2 2023

And the weird part is

1/24/2023 translates to Jan 24 2023

Could anyone shed a light on this? I already tried date format and formatting in Sheets itself but without luck

@user046467 Can you confirm that your field is actually stored as a date in Sheets and not just text?

user046467

Yes it surely is as I get the datepicker when I click on it in Sheets.

Domo also sees it as a datefield too

Are you using the Google Sheets connector? You could try forcing that column to a string in the connector and using the STR_TO_DATE function to transform it back into a date field in the correct format

I'm using the Google Sheets Service connector, sadly that one doesn't seem to show a field with 'force to string'. Can't used the other one as it's bugged, Domo is aware of this.
