Dateformat with category axis amcharts4
The dateformat property is not working in amcharts4.
I understand that the dateformat is inherited from the parent element, I've tried setting the dateformat at a chart level, axis level, and series level.
chart.dateFormatter.dateFormat = "dd/MM/yyyy";
Please see codepen below:

@Aroon I've updated the codepen example I think I might've made an error when creating the question.

The dates are coming from json or manually by you? If it is json you should change the dateformat from json file end

I could format the date before I send it to amcharts, but my intention was to pass the data and use the dateformatter class to configure the format

You are using CategoryAxis. This axis treats all of the categories as
text, hence no formatting applied.
If you need proper date axis, you need to use DateAxis, as well as use
dateX for series' dataFields:var dateAxis = chart.xAxes.push(new am4charts.DateAxis());
....
series1.dataFields.dateX = "category";
series1.dataFields.valueY = "value1";
Now, setting format for the DateAxis is not as straightforward as
setting dateFormat. This axis type have multiple levels of
granularity, so you need to set for your target one. In your case it's
a day.dateAxis.dateFormats.setKey("day", "dd/MM/yyyy");
dateAxis.periodChangeDateFormats.setKey("day", "dd/MM/yyyy");
