Converting Time Zone "to" UTC (issue?)

Posted on by 76

Hi I wonder this is already posted in the past, but I encountered this issue.

 

I received a local time stamp info from my PowerApps Canvas app with the round-trip format (fig below), and for a reason I need to change the time zone to UTC to set [Delay Until] timer. I simply use [Convert Time Zone] as the following image fig by setting UTC in Destination Time Zone, however the same as time stamp returned. I tried anything else such as "Local>UTC+8:00" or any other timezone, it's working fine and dandy. Only when I set the destination to UTC, no luck. I took an alternative (converting UTC to local time) and it's working.

 

Is this a bug, or do I misunderstand something?

    It is due to 'Z' towards end that you added in the base time. It is treating it as UTC already. Please remove 'Z' from the base time and it will work.

    It worked! My bad for not knowing what the Z end letter means. Thank you so much!
