    Hi DavidO!

    Thanks for your reply! 

    After talking with Braze Technical Support, they found the problem. Looks like the API config wasn't set up correctly. 

    This is the proper code:

    "custom_attribute_with_date": {"$time" : "2024-03-10"}
    After the ' "$time": ' tag, everything goes with the ISO 8601 format, as we said on previous messages.
     
    I hope that this helps anyone else with this issue 😊

Hi LizBordonaro!

Thanks for your reply. I tried populating the field with the format you provided and still doesn't work. With date and time too.

By any chance do you info on how your custom attribute field was configured? Do you use ISO 8601 format?
Thanks!

You're most welcome!

I can see we're bringing the attribute in as the data type time,  but the format isn't specified in our internal data model.  It does not appear to be in ISO 8601 format.
