Dateformat conversion issue from ISO8601 to yyyy-MM-dd format

Identity Security Cloud (ISC) ISC Discussion and Questions

I have created following transform for converting NonEmployee source account date from ISO8601 to yyyy-MM-dd.

But its Not working on Identity profile, the date value attribute on the identity preview and also on the identity after processing is showing blank.

{

"name": "NELM DateFormat Transform",

"type": "dateFormat",

"attributes": {

    "inputFormat": "ISO8601",

    "outputFormat": "yyyy-MM-dd"

},

"internal": false

}

Note: Also tried replacing the ISO8601 with actual format string “yyyy-MM-dd’T’HH:mm:ss.SSSZ” for the inputFormat but still the date attribute on the identity is showing blank (“–” ) in preview as well as on the identity after refreshing with “process identity” option.

Hi, @vspatil2211.

Hope you are doing good.

Your transform looks good.

If you take the transform out and try a preview, what date exactly do you see? “yyyy-MM-dd’T’HH:mm:ss.SSSZ”?

Hi @vspatil2211 ,

Welcome to the Developer Community!

Your transform looks good, could you please recheck on the input date format of the NELM source.

Hi @vspatil2211

The raw date values 2025-11-21T18:30:00Z do not match what ISO8601 expects. ISO8601 expects milliseconds yyyy-MM-dd’T’HH:mm:ss.SSSZ. From my understanding parser can’t match the input and transform returns null and preview shows blank.

Can you try bellow as inputFormat that matches your value.

{
“name”: “NELM DateFormat Transform”,
“type”: “dateFormat”,
“attributes”: {
“inputFormat”: “yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssX”,
“outputFormat”: “yyyy-MM-dd”
},
“internal”: false
}

X here because input ends with Z, and X is the ISO-8601 timezone pattern that correctly parses Z as UTC.

If values are always ends with literal Z

{
“name”: “NELM DateFormat Transform”,
“type”: “dateFormat”,
“attributes”: {
“inputFormat”: “yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'”,
“outputFormat”: “yyyy-MM-dd”
},
“internal”: false
}

Hi @vspatil2211,

Thank you for the feedback.

Please try like this:

“name”: “NELM DateFormat Transform”,
“type”: “dateFormat”,
“attributes”: {
“inputFormat”: “yyyy-MM-dd’T’HH:mm:ss’Z’”,
“outputFormat”: “yyyy-MM-dd”
},
“internal”: false
}

Hi @vspatil2211 ,

Thanks for the response. Please try the below transform as it’s working for me.

{
    "name": "NELM DateFormat Transform",
    "type": "dateFormat",
    "attributes": {
        "inputFormat": "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'",
        "outputFormat": "yyyy-MM-dd"
    },
    "internal": false
}
