Regex with Dates
Is it possible to change the date format with RegEx? The standard format with dates is: YYYY-MM-DD However, I need all dates in MM/DD/YYY Is it possible to place YYYY on the end, and repl...

You could use a property with type: string and a pattern: <regex> tag to enforce your desired date format. Pattern can be crafted to make sure year starts with a 1 or 2, month is 01 to 12 and days are correct for the designated month. Don’t forget leap years !
lots of good examples here: https://www.google.com/search?q=date+regex+mm%2Fdd%2Fyyyy&rlz=1C9BKJA_enCH591CH591&oq=date+regex&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0i512l4j69i60.7047j0j7&hl=en-GB&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8
Thanks for much for the quick response!
I might be misunderstanding the point of the Pattern property. No matter what I put in the regex expression, the output always come back in the same format "YYY-MM-DD"
Can we use Regex to change the actual output value format? (apologies I'm new to Regex)
- Ah, I wasn’t clear. Name the property as you see fit. But make it type: string with just a pattern tag, no format tag. Add default, example tags optionally.
