Try the curl command without specifying format @thinkdffrnt. You can still utilize that format during ETL, but you don't need to specify anything else other then "type": "date" for that specific field.
@thinkdffrnt As long as your current data is formatted to be consistent with what the date field can ingest found here: Date Fields
then you should have no issues. Just remember you don't need to specify the format, you only need to specify "type" : "date". As far as I can tell, nothing has changed between 6.1 ~ 6.4 that would cause issues with cluster migration ( in respect to field data types ).
