How to get ParseObject's createdAt date as String?

Question

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

Answer 1

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);
