Hi @arkiboys2 ,

 

Thanks for the reply from lbendlin .

 

When dealing with data import, an error indicates a schema mismatch, make sure that the column types of the source and target tables match exactly, and check every step of the conversion in the data flow to make sure that the data types are consistent.

 

You can set the data destination to an empty warehouse to see if the error occurs.

Fun fact:  a "date" column type does not exist.  Behind the scenes it is always datetime.  "Date"  is just a format.
