    Same here. We have an Import from Azure Stream Analytics. Timestamp has the format (system.timestamp) like "2015-10-20T08:52:16.000Z" but in Power BI Dashboard or Report we se only the date "2015-10-20". Any idea why?

      Thanks.

        Now it is solved. You can see a real timestamp on your data in PBI from ASA. Could be that you need to delete your existing Report.
