If Nick converts the selected date 07/11/2020 to a string in a microflow using formatDateTime, what will be the resulting date value?

The correct answer is that if Nick converts the selected date 07/11/2020 to a string using the formatDateTime function, the resulting date value will include the time specified within that format. By default, when converting a date to a string with formatDateTime in Mendix, the result will often include the time component set to midnight (12:00 AM) unless specified otherwise.

Understanding how time zones and default time settings work in Mendix is crucial. If no specific time is assigned during the conversion, it typically defaults to the local time zone's representation of that date, which could have an offset depending on the server or user's settings. For example, if the time zone offset is such that midnight translates to 2:00 AM in a specific local setting or representation, then that time would be displayed as part of the formatted string result.

This context is essential for interpreting the output from formatDateTime, particularly when dealing with date formatting and local versus UTC time representations.
