How to display single digit month and day

ELPC

Hi, I have a field with 1/1/2022 00:00 that Alteryx automatically change to a Date data type.  I want to change it back to a string to show "1/1/2022 00:00".  I used the DateTime tool to change it a string format using the formula %m/%d/%Y %H:%M but that results in 01/01/2022 00:00.  I need the month and day to only show one digit for the months that only have 1 digit.  Can someone help me with a formula for a one digit month and day?  Thanks.

@ELPC  You can use formula tool to trim the data. Here is the configuration of the tool

Hi,@ELPC 

 

There are 2 easy formulas for you:

 

1- If you want use classic Replace function, use the below formula:

 

TrimLeft(Replace(ToString([Date]),"/0","/"),"0")

 

 

2- If you like use RegEx function, then use the formula:

 

REGEX_Replace(ToString([Date]), "0(?=\d\/)", "")
