Hi Experts, I found that DATE_FORMAT(timestamp,format) returns a TIMESTAMP type, it is wired, because normally format result should be a string type. In document it says “Formats timestamp as a string using a specified format string”. But when I run it in Flink SQL, select ALBUM_ID, UNLOCK_USER_ID, DATE_FORMAT(CREATE_TIME, '%Y-%m-%d') as unlock_date from share_album_unlock;
The error throws out: org.apache.flink.table.api.ValidationException: Field types of query result and registered TableSink mysqlSink do not match. Query result schema: [ALBUM_ID: Long, unlock_date: Timestamp, score: Long] TableSink schema: [ALBUM_ID: Long, time_window: String, score: Long] The flink version is 1.6.2. Is it a program bug or something else? Best Henry
