How to import data from a type in another type

Hello.
I can not find how to import data of a type in another type of the same database using workflow.

I’ve try “upload data as csv”.

Thank you for your lights !

What data types are you trying to convert to? You can get a variety of plugins that will convert data before importing it into your database. For example, there is a plugin that allows you to convert strings to numbers.

Hello thomas.r.lemon.
I want to import a single date field of a type in another date field of another type…

Do you mean to say that you want to extract one part of the date, such month, day, or year from the date data type in your original database?

If you have a data type of say “Appointments” with a data field of “date” and another data type of say “Missed Appoitnments” with a data field of “date” and you want to transfer all the “dates” from “Appointments” to the “dates” of “Missed Appointments” you should set up a workflow or an api workflow to do so.

This video helped me set up API workflows to take text elements and turn them into Geolocation addresses for over 5000 data entries

If you are on a free plan, and therefor can’t run an Api workflow, then create a page with two repeating groups…one has the data type with field “date” empty…the other has a data type with data field “date” with data already.

Make a button, set a workflow to change a thing…should set it up to get the date field = date field of the different repeating group
