Salesforce-Google Tasks Integration: Due Time Discrepancy

I'm trying to connect Salesforce tasks to Google Tasks so I can track them in both places. My goal is to have the due date and time show up correctly in Google Tasks. However, I'm running into a problem. When I test the connection, the due date and time in Salesforce look correct (2024-08-28T18:00:00-0000). But when the task is actually created in Google Tasks, the time disappears, and it only shows the date (2024-08-28T00:00:00.000Z). This means that the tasks in Google Tasks don't have a due time, which isn't helpful for tracking.

Here’s why from the GTasks API: https://developers.google.com/tasks/reference/rest/v1/tasks#Task

Hi @SRjifsMD 

Could it be that the Salesforce task example record you used did not have a time set in Salesforce?

For us to have more context, post screenshots showing the DATA OUT from the Zap trigger step in EDIT mode as well as from the Zap Run trigger step.

Thank you for the help. Here’s the screenshot you requested:

 


 



 



As you notice the inputs are all correct, but then for some reasons, the output does seem to be incorrect. I hope you could help, thanks!
