Timezone difference causing error - cant display NOW()
All going well till I have to give a presentation. :cattongue: I live in New Zealand and discovered today that the PowerBI website seems to be running on GMT time. Everything on PowerBI Desktop pr...
I was intrigued, so I did the same thing: created 2 measures (NOW and TODAY) and uploaded them to PowerBI.com.
I'm in US Central Time, so it's 9am right now. In Power BI Desktop, it shows as 9am. On the website, NOW() resolved to 3pm (which is GMT).
Being in central time, I doubt I'd get the error you're seeing (since I am never a day ahead of GMT).
But I would definitely send a frowny face if I were you.
I hope your presentation went well despite this!
Cheers for the help everyone - I have lodged a frown with PowerBI. Hopefully this is something they can get on to quickly. :smileyvery-happy:
