Date storage type won't export to Tableau Server
I have a dataset with a lot of date fields that I would like to export to tableau server using the Tableau Hyper format plugin.
When the dates have the default format yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ssZ Dataiku recognizes them as date types, but the export to tableau server fails (screenshot provided).
When I format them to yyyy-mm-dd, they are no longer 'parsed' and cannot be stored as date type fields in dataiku. So they export to tableau as string field types and I do not have the ability to change the datatype in tableau when exporting from dataiku.
Is there any way to export date type fields to tableau server?
Operating system used: Windows

,
Can you please confirm you DSS version and version of the plugin you are using?
Are you using the legacy plugin or the https://www.dataiku.com/product/plugins/tableau-hyper-export/
This issue was likely fixed in a more recent version of the plugin :https://github.com/dataiku/dss-plugin-tableau-hyper/commit/5c1c201a2bd4160f8380e0e2102aced49ec808d5
Thanks, -
Thank you - my DSS Version is 11.1.1 and my plugin is 0.1.5. I'm using the https://www.dataiku.com/product/plugins/tableau-hyper-export/ plugin. I'll try updating, thank you!
