---------------------------------------
Summary: Improve coerce_to_timestamp for salesforce_hook
Key: AIRFLOW-643
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-643
Project: Apache Airflow
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Giovanni Briggs
Assignee: Giovanni Briggs
Priority: Minor
The salesforce_hook I created allows the user to chose to coerce all date and
datetime strings into Unix timestamps. However, the current way this is
implemented will cause any string that even remotely resembles a date or
datetime to be converted. For example, I just found a field in Salesforce that
is used to record the quarter in which an event occurred such as "2016 02."
The hook will currently interpret this to mean "2016-02-01" and create a Unix
timestamp accordingly which is not accurate.
I've changed the hook to only coerce fields that are of type "date" or
"datetime" in Salesforce. All other strings are left alone which is much more
inline with the original intention of the feature.
