PatFields PUT - Date Format Concern

Post by dr4com4lfoy » Wed Apr 30, 2025 12:23 am

Good Day,

I have an issue when updating date fields using PatFields PUT endpoint. The display format of the updated field on Open Dental changes from "dd/MM/yyyy" (eg. 03/04/2025) to "yyyy-MM-dd" (eg. 2025-03-04).

Thank you.
Good morning dr4com4lfoy,

Sounds like Open Dental may not localize patfield date formats when loading from the database. The API team will look into this behavior and report back here.

Thanks!
