Real timestreaming - (date/time data) does not get reflected on creating a report

I am streaming real time tweets using R script and sending it to Power BI using (Streaming data and REST API) to create a live streaming dashboard.

I have to create a tile which shows tweets over time. But the date/time field does not get reflected in the tile, it is just empty.

I'm not sure if I have to change the datatype or format of the field? Below is how the date/time field looks in R.

 

The streaming dataset is as below: 

 

 

Below is the tile I created (Shows blank)

    For data over some period you may use line chart, but is limited for last hour. Streaming will not show you data over a month or a week.

      rafaelmpsantos Hi, I have set the time to be displayed as "5mins" for that tile. Please see pic below. I have tried other options upto 60 mins.

        Maybe it can be date format. You know how to convert Date to a String in R? In PowerShell i always need to convert datetime to string.
