Is it possible to typecast the datatype in profile query language?

[ShashiCh]

Documentation do not cover typecasting the data for primitive types (double to integer)

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/segmentation/pql/arithmetic-functions.ht...

Can we typecast the profile data in PQL API query approach?

For example: Let's say profile has an attribute 'memberShipDuration': '500' , it is a string type. Now in profile query API, would like to convert it to integer so we can divide by 12 to find the number of years.

profile.memberShipDuration/12 = 41

Hi @ShashiCh ,

PQL does not offer a cast operator like toInteger currently.

The best way to get the operator working is to add a new field of integer datatype to the schema and populate the dataset with relevant integer values. Then perform the arithmetic operation on this newly added field.

Thanks!
