>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Alberto
>            Priority: Critical
>
> When working with ElasticSearch indexes that contains Date types the API is 
> returning Strings instead of proper Date object.
> We should add some logic inside the ElasticSearchUtils createRow() method to 
> convert these strings to java.Date objects. As we are not doing this 
> conversion so far the TimeComparator convertFromString method is not able to 
> parse the string value as a Date, the method returns null and then the 
> FormatHelper class is throwing an IllegalStateException.
> This is a bit tricky though because the number of date formats supported by 
> ElasticSearch is quite big  to think about creating a SimpleDateFormat to 
> support every single case:
