How to change the date formatting through the Data tab
WARNING: Please note that at the moment, data typing is supported in the Scatter, Table, Radar, Sankey, Line chart race, Projection map, Bar chart race and Timeline templates only.
Some Flourish templates, such as the Line, bar, pie, have a date/time formatting setting in the Preview tab that allows you to choose a custom date input format, as well as preferred output.
However, Flourish templates that support our data typing feature actually allow you to select preferred inputs and outputs directly from the Data tab! Learn how to do this below.
WARNING: At the moment, Flourish only recognizes written months in English. If you use date formats like 21 février 1967 or 21 febbraio 1967, your data will be recognized as text and the date/time columns won't work.
