If above answer give you error "ValueError: unconverted data remains" or doesn't work

Try:

from dateutil import parser
datetime_obj = parser.parse('2018-02-06T13:12:18.1278015Z')

Hope it help.

Dear Shaheryar Rajper,

 Try this:

from datetime import date, datetime,

t_date= datetime.strptime(record.create_date, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S").date()

I hope I helped You...

Hi Ayman,

I get this error "<class 'AttributeError'>: "module 'datetime' has no attribute 'strptime'" while evaluating"
then if I change it to t_date= datetime.datetime.strptime(record.create_date, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S").date() I get "Can't convert 'datetime.date' object to str implicitly" while evaluating
I am using Odoo Saas automated actions, date and datetime are available so I dont need to import

Edit:

The correct way of doing it is
t_date= datetime.datetime.strptime(record.create_date, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S").strftime('%Y-%m-%d')
hopefully it helps others as there is lack of Saas support
