Say you have a timestamp column created_at, and an integer column number that represents a number of weeks, how do you use the date_add function to calculate the resulting timestamps?

You need to also use the expr function:

from pyspark.sql.functions import expr, date_add
new_df = my_df.withColumn('test', expr('date_add(created_at, number*7)'))
