Azure Data Factory allows you to call functions within expressions. There are six categories of functions: date functions, string functions, math functions, collection functions, conversion functions, and logical functions. Date functions allow manipulation of timestamps, such as adding or subtracting days, hours, minutes, or seconds from a timestamp. Conversion functions allow conversion between string, integer, float, Boolean, arrays, and dictionaries.
