Email subscription date format always set to US?
Hi,
It seems like the reports generated by email subscription only works with US date format regardless of any regional & format settings in the report. Any one else experience this problem & know how to fix it?
For context, my regional & data format settings are all set to Australian date format. Dates are formatted correctly (to Australian format) both in Power BI desktop & when viewed online in the Power BI service as seen here:
But if subscription is setup for the same report, the date appears as US format in the generated image in the email:
Service is definitely running in the Australian region as can be seen here when I go to "About Power BI":
Any ideas?

Hi,
Regional settings are already set correctly:
This is why the report displays correctly when view online on the Power BI site.
Issue only occurs in the generated report in the email subscription.

No it hasn't. It's rediculous.
