Date Display Formats
Using Power BI Desktop to create reports and charts. What is the syntax for displaying dates in specific formats. For example, "01/25/2015" instead of "Monday, January 25, 2015". Etc. Thanks!

click on the time field in your model then you can click on Modeling in the Desktop ribbon and pick the desired date format

How do I add more formats? I need to use YYYY/MM/DD and it isn't shown in the data modelling -> Date format section.

I have the same problem... why not allowing true custom date format where we can type d, MM, YY etc...?
I need for have "Mon, Oct 14,'18" and such option is not availble :(
Is there a trick to create a custom display format? I know I could create a custom column, but I have so many date columns it would take a while... If I could simply customize the "display view" of such column to the date and time format I need, it would be perfect.
