Inconsistent Creation Times in Power BI REST API Responses

[Shreya_Barhate]

Hi everyone,

I’ve created a pipeline at 10:37 AM, but I’m encountering an issue when running the Power BI REST API to get the activity events. The 'CreateArtifact' operation for the same item shows varying creation times in the response. My fabric trial capacity is located in central India. Has anyone faced a similar issue or have any insights on why this might be happening?

HI @Shreya_Barhate,

Have you tied to convert your local datetime to UTC format? AFAIK, PBI service use UTC format to store datetime values.

So If your datetime values are included with local timezone, they will be force convert to UTC when they work on service side.
