How do you handle null date values via API ?

Posted on by Hinnack 69

Hello,

we provide data via API interface. In our case some date fields are NULL. These NULL values are represented as 0001-01-01 in the API. When trying to write the data to a SQL database, we get an error because the min. date is 1753-01-01.

How do you handle such problems ?

Kind Regards

    For more clarity:

    With NULL values are actually meant 0D values

    Hello - I found a similar message on a different Microsoft Community (power automate).  Not sure if you can apply the same workaround: powerusers.microsoft.com/.../420710

    You can also reach out to our Developer Support on our Yammer for assistance as well:
