Sergey Shakhnazarov commented on CB-8115: ----------------------------------------- [~bau720123], regarding 1 day less than expected - this is because of time zone, i.e. JSON.stringify uses UTC (+0) time zone while converting the Date to string, which may differ from your local time zone. It should now return the same Date value when retrieving it as a contact object property though.
