Hi swilko,

 

Thanks for the details! I have reproduced the issue and forwarded it to our developers.

 

As a workaround, please add a schema-level example for the whole object - in this case the mock will use the correct date/time examples:

    Order:
      type: object
      properties:
        ...
      example:
        id: 1
        petId: 12
        qualtity: 1
        shipDate: '2017-07-21T17:32:28Z'  # <------
        otherDate: '2017-07-21'           # <------
        status: delivered
        complete: true
