Qlik Sense: Change date field format from Google Analytics API
I've pulled in data in Qlik Sense (cloud) from the Google Analytics connector. I'm trying to convert the standard date [ga_dateHourMinute] field to a more eligible date format.
The current format is YearMonthDayhHourMinute, for instance: 201810250004, I would like to convert this to the standard date format 2018-10-25 00:04:00. How do I do this? Answers concerning methods in the data load script or master formula's or variables are all welcome.
Click to see screenshot: left = current date format and right = desired date format
date datetime format google-analytics-api qliksense

This is one approach:
DateAlter:
LOAD * INLINE [
Date
201810250004
];
DateAlter2:
LOAD
Date(Date#([Date], 'YYYYMMDDhhmm') ,'YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm') AS [MyDateField]
Resident
DateAlter;
If you haven't played around with the data manager, it will allow you to edit fields and handle dates in a fairly easy manner:
