I have a set of records that read via SQLExecutor which includes a timestamp field (driver_date). This seems to be stored a “buffer” datatype. 

I don’t seem to be able to explode this field using the DateTimeExploder as it can’t autodetect the timestamp value as a date/time value. 

I’ve tried including a DateTimeConverter, but get the same result. Is there someway to convert the timestamp from “buffer” datatype to datetime?

Hi! 

If you just want to change the datatype you could use an AttributeManager and change the datatype to datetime. 

 

However I think you could tweak the input format field in the DateTimeConverter to fit your format: %d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S.  

 

Best regards,

Thanks, that works!
