ODataStore dates conversions

Bug Report

Hi I’m using a devextreme DataGrid with OData and ODataStore. Everything works fine except the dates which are showed in UTC from the grid.

Our endpoint for OData returns dates in this format: "2019-05-15T08:19:17.158253Z" which is ISO 8601 and UTC.

It looks like dates in the store are re-converted in UTC and then in local time. In fact using a template for the date columns to print the column value, the date was moved another 2 hours back (our localtime is GTM+2).

The following is a sample response from our endpoint:

{
"@odata.context":"http://localhost:5000/api/audit-records?%24top=30&%24count=true",
"@odata.nextLink":"http://localhost:5000/api/audit-records?$top=0&$count=true&$skip=30",
"value":[
	{
		"id":1,
		"timestamp":"2019-05-15T08:19:17.158253Z",
		"auditAction":2,
		"entityName":"Product",
		"message":"Updated Product with id 2",
		"retailerId":null,
		"retailerName":null,
		"userId":1,
		"userName":"admin"
	}
],
"@odata.count":1
}

Package versions:

devexteme version: 18.2.8
devextreme-angular version: 18.2.8

Have you tried to set dateSerializationFormat to null?

@hakimio thank you. It does the trick. So, the solution is: [dateSerializationFormat]="null" in the html element and deserializeDates:false into the store obj.

I think that this is not as clear as it should be

The initial problem is resolved, so I closed the issue. As for the documentation, we will consider adding more information about serialization specifics in the future, but I can’t provide you with any time frames.
