Hiplease check combining unix_timestamp and from_unixtime, Something like: from_unixtime(unix_timestamp( "06-04-2020 12:03:43"),"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss Z")
please note that I just wrote without any validation. In any case, you might want to check the documentation of both functions to check all valid formats. Also note that this functions are universal (not only in Spark, Hive) so you have a huge amount of documentation available.
