[SOLVED] ArcGIS url query using date parameter stopped working overnight

ArcGIS url query using date parameter stopped working overnight

Until a few days ago, this query ran without problems:

https://dhsgis.wi.gov/server/rest/services/DHS_COVID19/COVID19_WI_V2/MapServer/11/query?where=RptDt>='2022-05-01'&outFields=*&returnGeometry=false&outSR=4326&f=json

Now it returns:

error   
    code            400
    extendedCode    -2147220985
    message         "Unable to complete operation."
    details         []

The URL without RptDt specification still works just fine:

https://dhsgis.wi.gov/server/rest/services/DHS_COVID19/COVID19_WI_V2/MapServer/11/query?where=1%3D1&outFields=*&returnGeometry=false&outSR=4326&f=json

Here is a link to the open data portal resource.

The trouble appears to be in this bit: where=RptDt>='2022-05-01'.

Did ArcGIS change the formatting for date values? Does anyone know how I can update my URL to work properly?

Solution

If you change the date query to use a standardized date format it seems to work fine, ie using RptDt>=date'2022-05-01' instead of RptDt>='2022-05-01'.

Updated example URL: https://dhsgis.wi.gov/server/rest/services/DHS_COVID19/COVID19_WI_V2/MapServer/11/query?where=RptDt%3E=date%272022-05-01%27&outFields=*&returnGeometry=false&outSR=4326&f=json
