`I have a schema for a field like this :

"StartDate":{ "type":"string", "format":"date-time" }

and a mapper is as below :

"StartDate":{ "path": "policy.startDate.shortformat" }

the Date.shortFormat will give value as “05/09/2024” which is of type String.
but still I’m getting string:format=date-time is not a valid FormattedjsonType for class java.util.String when trying to assign date string to a field in schema.

I tried making changes to schema like below :

1. `"StartDate":{
   "type":"string"
    }`
   

2.  `"StartDate":{
    "type":"string",
    "format":"date"
     } `
   

however none of them worked.

any help would be greatly appreciated.`
