Hello all,

How to format a date column in a table?

Basically, I don't need the time. The data source is a Dataverse table with a "date" type.

Thank you.

Does the column in Dataverse include the time?

Anyway, you could give this a try. Seems to solve the issue.

The column is date only.

As you may see, the only available properties of the control are the following:

I'm having the same problem right now. I'm displaying a Sharepoint list in the modern controls table and would like to format the date in a column. Is there already a solution?

facing a similar issue with Modern Tables. Using SharePointlist as the data source and would like to change to dd/mm/yyyy instead of the default mm/dd/yyyy.

In my SharePoint list its configured to Australia region, dd/mm/yyyy.

Hello,
I found this solution.
Change the table Items property adding a column to the source (use AddColumns function).
Define the value of the new column appling, to the original date column, the date format you prefer (in my case Italian)

AddColumns(
'SourceTableName',
CreatedFormatted, //name of the new column
Text(Created,DateTimeFormat.ShortDate,"it-IT")
)

Than in the Table fields selection select the new column (CreatedFormatted) instead the original one (Created)

So, I had the same issue.

After trying above, I believe I have a better answer.

Using SharePoint list, I have created a calculated column on the source itself(my app is using SharePoint as the backend).

The calculated item (CreatedDateCalculated) has the following formula

=TEXT([Created], "dd/MM/yyyy")

Now all I need to do is use the new item in our app and the table displays the data correctly.
