Why selecting a date\time range into Kibana the query is performed with wrong dates? URL parameters are wrong - elasticsearch

I am working on a project involving ElasticSearch and visualizing data on Kibana and I am finding the following problem with date range selection.
As you can see in the following picture I selected I time range that starts from April 8 2021 at 00:00:00.000 and end at April 10 2021 00:00:00.000 . Then I clicked the Refresh button in order to perform the query.
The problem is that, as you can see in the highligher URL section the passed date range into the query is wrong !!! Infact this is the timerange section of my query into my URL parameters:
time:(from:'2021-04-07T22:00:00.000Z',to:'2021-04-10T10:00:00.000Z')
As you can see it is pretty differnt from what I selected into the start and end date form fields.
Changing the values into the start and end date form fields automatically changes also the values into the URL parameters but they still wrong.
What could be the problem? Why selecting dates and time into these form fields the parameters value are wrong? What could be the cause of this issue? How can I try to fix it?
I suspect something related to the server timezone (the server where Elastic\Kibana) are installed or something related to some Kibana configuration but I really have no idea

The kibana docs specify:
The timezone that Kibana uses. The default value of Browser uses the timezone detected by the browser.
So (I'm assuming) your browser default timezone is UTC + 2, meaning when you select 00:00 it's converted to 22:00 UTC timezone, The Z in 2021-04-07T22:00:00.000Z is in indicator here.

Microsoft PowerAutomate

I am currently building an out of office workflow in Microsoft powerautomate for Teams. When a request for 8/19/20 gets submitted it gets changed to 8/20/20 and same thing with the end date. Is there a way to set a it so it shows the actual dates selected?
So i think this is happening due to Default UTC time zone is used by Power Automate. Here is a flow that uses the Convert time zone action with a base time of utcNow(). Convert the time to needed timezone and then used an Update item action to update a date field with that converted time value. The correct time shows up in my SharePoint list
Hope this may help you.

Format dates in response field in elastic search

My server on which the application runs (uses ES) and ES are in central american time and I am accessing it from my server which is in IST.
I want some charts and data for today(Say Jan 3) so I send from date as today 12:00 AM to to date as current date in UTC to date range query. I get accurate number of records but I want the date to be shown as todays date alone(Jan 3), It gets divided between today(Jan 3) and yesterday(Jan 2) on client side access - ideally it should only todays date on client side for all records. Kibana renders correctly. So obviously there is a way and I am missing someting
I am using date range query - passing UTC for both to and from date and timezone offset as well.
Also, I am querying on a field which is of default type Date.I have not specified any custom date formats
Can somebody pleas help me with this?

Control UTC time in server side Dynamicscrm

I saved a record in 17:16:15, I run a job which gets the ModifiedOn field of my record and I got- 15:16:15, my GMT is +2, I want to know how to fix that gap that my result will turn out like it should be - 17:16:15. I can't select it from DB I need a solution in server side (c# I mean) what can U do in that case?
DateTimes are always saved in UTC in the database. *
You need to dynamically convert from UTC into your local time zone. In C#, you can do this with the .ToLocalTime() method as long as your code is running in the correct time zone. You can also find your local time in the FormattedValues collection of the response, which uses your Dynamics timezone user settings . But the raw datetime value in the database will always be in UTC.
* The only exception to this is if the DateTime field is set to “TimeZone Independent” in the attribute type settings. But be careful: once you set this option you can’t change it for that field again.

400 - Bad Request while saving Date Only field in CRM using Web API

I am using Microsoft Dynamics 365 Web API approach to interacting with CRM data.
Here I want to update the field with type: DATE and TIME.
Date value I am passing in the request body is as below:
"packfirstday":"1-15-2018"
Except for above, I have also tried with DateTime and with different date formats.
e.g.
mm-dd-yyyy
m-dd-yyyy
mm/dd/yyyy
yyyy/mm/dd
yyyy-mm-dd
PS: I try to post without date field it is saving details successfully.
The problem is not with the code, the simple misunderstanding.
There are 2 components namely Behavior & Format. You have Format set as 'Date only' not the Behavior. Behavior decides the Database terms whereas Format is used for displaying datepicker controls in Form.
So when you set the field in web api with only date part - the CRM database expects time part also.
Either set behavior also as date only, so this will work:
"packfirstday":"2018-01-15" //YYYY-mm-dd format
Or change your code to pass time part also:
"packfirstday":"2018-01-15T11:10:00.000Z" //UTC offset
Since user local behavior still expects the time part.

Problem with Oracle BI Answers Calendar Prompt

I have a calendar prompt which when selected is in the format 'MM/DD/YYYY' but when the filter is applied the timestamp gets appended to it.
Please see the attached picture.
I do not want the timestamp to be appended after applying the filter.
Figured out the problem - The data type of the selected column was DATETIME in the physical layer. Once I changed it to DATE everything was fine
