Date formatting JSON (remove timezone)

Hello,
I am coming to you because I have a problem when importing my data into my table.
Indeed, I receive a date in JSON but it is in this format:
Tue May 25 00:00:00 CEST 2021

I would like to retrieve it like this:
DD / MM / YYYY

I tried to fix the problem with "moment.js" but I was not successful ...

Here is my code:

$.ajax({
        'url': "https://myurl",
        type: "GET",
        dataType: "json",
        }).done( function(data) {
        
        $('#table_id').dataTable( {
            "aaData": data,
            "columns": [
                { "data": "MY_DATE"}
            ],

        })
})

Can you help me?
Thank you so much !

    You can use columns.render, see example here: http://live.datatables.net/kezeyiti/3/edit

    Thank you for your reply!

    I have already tried to use "columns.render", the problem is that it displays: "Invalid date"
    I have the impression that he does not understand this format ..: Thu May 27 00:00:00 CEST 2021.

    We're happy to take a look, but as per the forum rules, please link to a test case - a test case that replicates the issue will ensure you'll get a quick and accurate response. Information on how to create a test case (if you aren't able to link to the page you are working on) is available here.

    Cheers,

    You are using the datetime plugin. You probably need to provide the source datetime format using this syntax: $.fn.dataTable.render.moment( from, to );. You can workout the format using the moment.js format docs.
