Bug Report: Wrong Meeting Times for Daylight Savings

in Education Management APIs

It appears the “Schedules Meetings” endpoint has a bug. Daylight savings starts on March 12. However, it appears that this API endpoint has daylight savings starting on Monday, April 3. This means the period between March 12 and April 3 have the start and end times incorrect by an hour. If someone could take a look at this, we and our clients would be very appreciative.

Thank you!

    Aaron. I've reported this issue and Blackbaud is working on it, but definitely put in your own support request.

    My guess is that it's using the old DST start end dates before the extension in 2007 because of the way dates and times are separated into different fields. I could be wrong, but it sounds like it may take a while for this to be resolved due to the complexity of how datetime is used across the platform and API.
