Posted on by angelo_theus 14
I'm publishing OData and there is inconsistency date data type
 
some date data type result type=edm.Date and json file show empty string (/ /). some are showing /0001-01-01/ (this is the correct one).
 
How to solve this issue? is there anything wrong with database?

    Hi angelo,
     
    Thank you for your feedback.
     
    It's hard to say what the root cause of the problem is, it is highly recommended that you can debug the code to verify if the OData publishing process is correctly mapping the date data type to the appropriate format in the JSON file.
     
    Best Regards,

    Hi Judy,
     
    the problem is that the result is inconsistent in Json Data for date data type.
     
    for example:
     
    "Birthday Date": "0001-01-01"
    "Posting Date": ""
     
    both fields are empty in Business Central interface but when we published the API, Json file shows as above. "Posting Date" should give value "0001-01-01".

    Hi,
     
    Please refer to the Microsoft Document to map the type between date type in Database and Edm.Date type through the CLR System.DateTime type:
    Hope it helps.
     
    Best Regards,
    Judy
