When using DateTime fields

When creating list items with a DateTime field, use the timezone and the format that the site expects, based on its regional settings. Alternatively, a format which works on all regions is the following: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss. However, you should use the local timezone in all situations. UTC date/time or ISO 8601 formatted date/time is not supported.
