I created a timeline component based on a query that retrieves some events from an element table. The columns used for the Start and End fields of the component are regular Datetime parameters in DataMiner:
However, in the timeline you can see that the events are not placed correctly in the timeline. Is there a chance that the expected time format is UTC? If that's the case what would be the recommendation, perhaps a custom GQI that transforms the dates to UTC?
Thank you.
Hi Sebastian,
Dates should typically always be stored as UTC. It's up to the frontend to correctly format these using the appropriate time zone.
Would it be possible to try this setup on a 10.3 (CU1) or 10.3.4 version? We've made several changes and fixes related to dates in that version (see docs).
That was it! I tested in a Lab environment and found that the timeline is correctly displayed in 10.3.4, while it was not working in 10.3.3.
