Details

The date input component does not honour the default value and always shows the current date by default. For the card as in the attached json, following are the views on desktop and android.

Time and Date values have to be expressed in specific format.
Date: YYYY-MM-DD
Time:HH:MM
Resolution: Created PR for updated doc

@nesalang, thanks! Are we now consistent across all renderers/platforms wrt time and date expressions?

@nesalang @shalinijoshi19 I believe this has been erroneously closed, the issue still persists in the 1.2.6 drop. Note that the bug is not regarding the format of the date, but that the date input element picks up todays date by default, instead of the specified date value.

@shbhadra ,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

{
         "type":"Input.Date",
         "value":"03/12/2019",
         "id":"date"
}

The date string, "03/12/2019", is in wrong format.
The correct format is 2019-03-12 . i.e YYYY-MM-DD.
