Bug in date format using Copy Value in Power BI Service and paste it in Notepad

If I right click on a cell such as the Create Date in browser using report in Power BI Service, I use the Copy>Copy Value option.

But if I paste the value into Notepad instead of getting 06/09/2011 I get:

"Thu Jan 06 2011 00:00:00 GMT+0000 (Greenwich Mean Time)".

Please fix this bug

    Hi den_shumilin 

     

    Got feedback from product team said it’s by design. Copy value option copies unformatted values, and Copy selection option copies formatted values. For more details, please refer to Table visualizations in Power BI reports and dashboards - Power BI | Microsoft Docs. Also, they will make a little bit update to this official to clarify the difference of these two options.
