Failed to run dataset due to error from the bery beginning node

I have a dataset that failed to run due to an error from the very beginning node. It said "Failed to convert value '5785586.012810127' from type 'String' to type 'Date'."

However, that input itself runs normally and the data looks legit. I checked, no abnormal and no value of 5785586 anywhere.

I tried to change all timestamp to date but it still faces the error.

Can you please advise on how to fix this? Thanks!

    If you click on the configuration for your input dataset you can then expand the Data Handling menu, there will be one or more columns with a data type of Date, change them to Text. Then in your ETL you can handle any conversion issues downstream.
