API Date/Time Format Error

Hey Everyone, I am 2 days into starting powerbi and have an error I cant seem to work around. 

 

I am using a power automate code to add a new line of data to an excel sheet everytime someone inputs their info

I am then taking that excel data and feeding it into powerbis API to have live data updates in the report.

However, I keep getting an error with the "Build start date" format. I have tried "fromatdatetime" command a couple of ddifferent times to work around it and still no luck. Any ideas?

Of course! Instead of choosing the excel "dynamic content" I replaced it with the sharepoint "dynamic content" icon.

I also changed the powerbi API code from "date" to "text".
