OData date day and hour

[Torbennb]

I connect data with Odata from Azure database.

When I add date fields, I looks like it only take the date value and not the hours value.
Any way to configure this??

Thank yo very much @Anonymous .

It helped me to understand then the hour were removed in the Power BI setup. Data were pulled right into the report from o-data.

So challange was then the previously developer of the report has removed the hours.

Thank you very mudh Vinay.

I can do that but the value is set to 00.00.00 and not to the actual hour.
In database the hour is stored and visual

Hi @Torbennb,

The issue is not with Power BI.
Power BI displays exactly what it receives from the OData service. If the time shows as 00:00:00, it means the OData feed is sending only the date, even though the database stores the full datetime.

This usually happens when the OData service truncates or casts the datetime to just a date in its model.
To fix it, the column needs to be exposed as a full datetime in the OData metadata.

Hi @Torbennb,

Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

In Power BI, datetime fields might sometimes show only the date because the system automatically converts them to the Date type during data load.
To resolve this, go to Transform Data, open the column in Power Query, and manually change its data type to Date/Time to ensure both date and time are retained.
