Hi Hendrik1980 ,
The error message you're encountering,ErrorCode=InvalidParameter, indicates that there's an issue with the way a date value is being formatted in your JSON data. It seems Microsoft Data Factory is expecting a specific format for dates, but the data you're providing doesn't match that format.
Please check with date values, you should be able to get some resolution.The values in the date column are just that: dates. Timestamps. Some kind of representation of a date. Whatever format is required, under the hood it should be nothing other than a timestamp. If it was a string column, I could understand the format argument. But the date column has no "format" other than what's displayed to the user. It has some date time information, timezone naive or timezone aware. How that date is made readable, should be irrelevant for the JSON conversion. I would expect the JSON conversion, which essentially converts the date time object into a string (yes), to use some universal or configurable format instead of just failing. I see no option to choose a format for the date to JSON conversion anywhere. It just fails. As a bare minimum/default/fallback format I would expect the datetime to be redered into an ISO string - instead of failing.
