This article is for Flatfile's Portal 2.0, Portal 3.0, and Workspaces. If you'd like to check out the latest version of the Flatfile Data Exchange Platform, click here!

By default, yes. However, you can define a dateFormat field in your config file in Portal 2.0 to format dates any way you like. Use the below example to adjust your date formats:

dateFormat: 'xx/xx/xxxx'

In Portal 3.0 or Workspaces, the smartDateField is available in the Flatfile Platform SDK to enable you to specify your desired date format and ensure your dates are imported in the correct format, regardless of how they are imported.
