Hi mkatipal,
To change the data type, you have a couple options. You can, in the Data view (left side button that looks like a table), click on the column you would like to change the data type, then select the Modeling tab and choose the "Data Type" dropdown in the formatting section.
Alternatively, go into the Query Mode by clicking on the Home tab at the top, then "edit queries". From there, the "transform" section will have a Data type dropdown you can select.
