pandas timestamp to string
Consider the dataframe df df = pd.DataFrame(dict(timestamp=pd.to_datetime(['2000-01-01']))) df timestamp 0 2000-01-01 Use the datetime accessor dt to access the strftime method. You can pass a format string to strftime and it will return a formatted string. When used with the dt accessor you will get a series of strings. df.timestamp.dt.strftime('%Y-%m-%d') 0 2000-01-01 Name: timestamp, dtype: object Visit strftime.org for a handy set of format strings.
