This Example Lab demonstrates how to use a Flow to take a DateTime value as an input to return the first day of that month.
Explanation
This Converter Flow takes in a DateTime input and then outputs a DateTime value of the first date of that month. This works by first formatting the Date into a "MM/YYYY" String, then parsing that String back into a DateTime. Because the String has no day, it defaults to the first of the month that is being parsed.
