Hello!
I am starting to use Metabase and I'm trying to do something that should be quite simple, but have not been able to. I want to summarize using the "CreatedAt" column as can be seen in the image below:
However, when I try to do it, it immediately shows me an error:
400 Bad Request POST https://www.googleapis.com/bigquery/v2/projects/weego-io/queries { "code" : 400, "errors" : [ { "domain" : "global", "location" : "q", "locationType" : "parameter", "message" : "Invalid datetime string "2021-09-26T15:42:36Z"", "reason" : "invalidQuery" } ], "message" : "Invalid datetime string "2021-09-26T15:42:36Z"", "status" : "INVALID_ARGUMENT" }
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Thank you!
Hi @casimiroperez
Post "Diagnostic Info" from Admin > Troubleshooting.
Metabase can only work with dates, otherwise it needs to cast the field, but that's currently not supported in BigQuery:

@casimiroperez You should upgrade to Java 11: https://www.metabase.com/docs/latest/operations-guide/java-versions.html
And I'm guessing that your database column type is actually a string instead of a datetime/timestamp.
@flamber Yeah, I've checked now and it's actually a string.
About the update, you're right. This is my home computer, I don't usually work from here but I should update it as well. 
Once again, thank you very much for the answers!
