<!-- Answer --> The error happens because DevLake's ZenTao plugin tries to parse all planned date fields as ISO8601 dates, but 'long-term' (e.g., "้ฟๆ") is a special string in ZenTao that isn't a valid date. The parser expects a date and fails when it encounters this value, causing the remote scopes interface error you described. There is currently no logic in the codebase to handle or sanitize non-date values like 'long-term'โthey are passed directly to the date parser, which throws an error when it can't parse them ([source](https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/blob/2c15ad880dce830c6512fa58039527cbf4745b8b/backend/core/models/common/iso8601time.go), [source](https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/blob/2c15ad880dce830c6512fa58039527cbf4745b8b/backend/plugins/zentao/models/project.go)). A practical solution would be to add logic in the ZenTao plugin to detect and handle special values like 'long-term' before attempting to parse them as dates. For example, you could treat these as `nil` or ignore them, so the parser only receives valid date strings. This would prevent the error and allow projects with indefinite planned dates to be processed gracefully. No recent pull requests or documentation address this issue, so this would be a new improvement for the ZenTao integration. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?
