Can you please use a formula tool to convert the text string to a date? You will know the problem is solved by using Excel to filter the Output column and see:
2023
January
1
instead of:
1/1/23
Input (text) | Output (should be date, not string) | ||
1/1/2023 12:00:00 AM | 1/1/23 | ||
Thank you!
If you are expecting to see the date as 2023-01-01 in Excel, you would need to change the regional format data of your computer or format the cell to display as expected.
Excel appears to format a cell with a date as a Short date - 1/1/2023.
You can change it in Alteryx as @Felipe_Ribeir0 suggested, but it will not display the same in Excel.
