Hi @Anonymous you have 2 options; either you can use a formatDateTime expression or there is a the Convert Time Zone action which I use regualrly to convert to dd/MM/yyyy format.

Hi @Anonymous, your image doesn't give me any clue as to where you are adding the formatDateTime expression - there's no Compose action in your screenshot - so I can't even see where you are getting an error. Where are you doing the formatDateTime?

Hi @Anonymous ，

Please refer to screenshot below to add expression to the Create html table action and let me know if your problem could be solved:

formatDateTime(item()?['Created'],'dd/MM/yyyy')

Best regards,

Alice
