How can hive convert date to string?

In Hive, you can use the to_date() function to convert a date into a string.

Here is an example:

SELECT to_date(date_column) AS string_date FROM your_table;

In this example, you need to replace “date_column” with the date column in your table, and “your_table” with your table name. After running this query, Hive will return a result set called “string_date” where the dates are displayed as strings.
