MongoDB Source: ISO Timestamps show up as strings workaround? Hi all, we’re currently trying to setup a MongoDB -> BigQuery sync and are currently blocked because iso strings in mongodb will show up as strings rather then timestamps in our destinations -> Makes aggregations unnecessary hard. I know that MongoDB is in alpha but was wondering if there is an easy to setup/maintain workaround available? Might be related to: https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues/10031 Thanks!

Hey @Jens Teichert, it's possible to transform the data after it is loaded into your destination. We have a three-part tutorial on transforming destination data using SQL and dbt. Here's a link to the first part of the tutorial, it has links to the other two parts: https://docs.airbyte.com/operator-guides/transformation-and-normalization/transformations-with-sql/ Other than that, please add your comments and thumbs up to the github issue to help with prioritization!
