Dates Turned to Number in Imported Excel Sheet

Why did the 'date' columns in my Excel spreadsheet - that I imported to a SP list - turn from date format to number format, and how do I fix it?

    Hello @PhineasT 

     

    That's for the Data type formats between platforms. I recomend you to insert the date value as String.

    Hi @PhineasT,

    Not sure how you transfer the data from excel to SP list, if you use the flow, you should configure as below:

    formatDateTime(addDays('1900-01-01', add(int(items('Apply_to_each')?['Date']),-2)), 'MM/dd/yyyy')
