Import sharepointlist: Wrong date: offset -1 day

Hi,

 

I've imported data form a sharepoinlist.

 

The dates in the sharepointlist start on march 23; but when I import in to power bi, the date starts on march 22.

I've checked the options in both the sharepointlist and power bi and they are correct for my regio/timezone (Amsterdam)

 

Any ideas what is going on and how I can solve this?

 

Jochen

Hi , @jochendecraene 

It usually occurs when  user has different time zone other than SharePoint Time Zone

It seems that powerbi currently returns dates from SharePoint items in UTC, unless you apply a transformation.

I will suggest you to converted the date time values to your home time zone  by adding offset  hours to UTC date time values.
