Hi everyone,
I am trying to get hh: mm AM in 24-hour format from timestamp column.
any help will be highly appreciated! Thanks!!

What I have tried:

Here is the query I have written:
select to_varchar(Date_column, 'HH:mm AM') 

The example output is 23:06 PM...

How can I convert it to 11:06 PM?
I am writing the query in Snowflake web UI.

Take a look at the documentation: TO_CHAR , TO_VARCHAR — Snowflake Documentation[^]
There's a link to Conversion Functions — Snowflake Documentation[^], which says:

Quote:
AM , PM - Ante meridiem (am) / post meridiem (pm); for use with HH12.

BTW: MM is used to get 2 digits month. To get minutes, use MI instead.

So, finally it should be:

SQL

select to_varchar(Date_column, 'HH12:MI AM')

Note: i can't test it!

Did you read the format that is desired? Formats 14/114 output in 24H format with seconds
