How to get ParseObject's createdAt date as String?

How do I get the date from the ParseObject's createdAt column and convert it to a String in the DD-MM-YYYY format?

Solution

  • You need to get the date from Parse like this:

    Date date = object.getCreatedAt();

    And then in the adapter or wherever you want:

    DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy");
String reportDate = df.format(date);
