How to convert a string to date without knowing the format
Hi All,
We have a service which returns a date in the response. Here the date can be in various formats and it is not consistent.
For example, it returns date as "05-MAR-2021" or "2021-03-05" or etc... .
Now we need to convert this date in string format to Date format YYYYMMDD.
Any leads on this please?

@SANTOSHKY You can create a RUF and write the following custom java code to covert the String date in the required data format:
SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
String dateString = format.format( new Date() );
Date date = format.parse ( "2009-12-31" );
Hope this solves your problem.
Thanks
