--------------------------------------
Summary: EL toDate() always uses local timezone
Key: NIFI-14620
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-14620
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core Framework
Affects Versions: 2.4.0
Environment: OS: RedHat 9.5
Reporter: Beat Fuellemann
I use a parameter date "20250601". Nifi is running in CEST timezone.
No I need to generate a date in UTC based on the parameter "date".
If I use UpdateAttribute Processor with
${date:toDate(''yyyyMMdd,'UTC')}, it generates the timestamp "Sun Jun 01
00:00:00 CEST 2025". I would expect "Sun Jun 01 *02:00:00* CEST 2025".
I also already tested it with timezone "Europe/Kiev" or "America/Detroit", I
always get "Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 CEST 2025".
It looks, that this Nifi expression Language method "toDate" always uses the
local timezone.
In release 1.23.2 it was working fine.
