Hi All,

 

Is possible to extract the date and time from this format 2022-09-07T16:34:14Z? I don't care for the trailing Z.

 

 

Thank You,

Hey @rmartinez4,

You can use the date time tool and use a custom format to convert you data to a date time data type:

You can find some good quick videos on how data types work here on the community https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Interactive-Lessons/Understanding-Data-Types/ta-p/73958 or just check the docs your feeling brave https://help.alteryx.com/20221/designer/data-types.

 

Any questions or issues please ask

Yes, you can use a formula tool prior to using the date tool to remove the Alpha characters:

 

Trim(regex_replace([Field1],"[A-Z]"," "))

@rmartinez4 ,

 

Please take the time to learn how to create the following formula:

 

DateTimeParse([Field1],"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S")

 

Here are two of my posts about dates:

Sorry @IraWatt but I discourage the use of that macro.
