Dates from Amazon Forecast loading incorrectly

‎06-25-2020 08:04 AM

I have a sales forecast dataset produced by Amazon Forecast which has date-time stamps in the format YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ (for example, 2015-02-01T00:00:00Z). For some reason, PowerBI is loading the dates wrong, specifically, one day backward. For example, a date of 2015-02-01 in the csv fie is being loaded as January 31, 2015.  Any idea why?

I found the solution. By default PowerBI was loading the date as date format. I changed to text format and trimed off the text to the right of "T" so that 2015-02-01T00:00:00Z would be 2015-02-01. Now the date is correct.

@Anonymous seems like it is related to the timezone that is part of the timestamp, check if this post helps.
