/wiki/spaces/DASSB100/pages/32569527069 Dates are one of the primitive data types used in Datameer. However, it is often necessary (during data imports and exports as well as when working with certain functions) to convert a date represented as a string to a form that is recognized as a date by Datameer. This is done by parsing the pattern so that it can be correctly interpreted. Use the table below to define the parse pattern.
