Hello,
 
I'm doing an automate process to present a table from excel in a power app after the user clicks on a button. 
So far, I'm already presenting the table, but I'm stuck in the date format.
The Date in excel is being presented in format mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss tt but to the power apps table is going the number 4xxxxx.xxx and I need it in mm/dd/yyyy
 
Thank you.

    Check the advanced settings on the action retrieving the date. The last field in advanced properties specifies the format of the date you want. It sounds like you are getting the default serial date format rather than the ISO 8601 format.
