OH3 DateTime format in YAML

Setup, Configuration and Use Items & Sitemaps
1

Hello All

I am using an Item State as Title in a oh-label card, the State of the Item is DateTime Format.
The Items State Description is set,

Datetime2
Datetime2902Ă—525 25 KB

and the State of the Item is shown correct.

Datetime5
Datetime5763Ă—669 23 KB

In the oh-label card the raw State is shown.

Datetime4

and the YAML

component: oh-label-card
config:
  action: group
  item: Muellkalender_Ergebnistitel1
  actionGroupPopupItem: muell
  fontSize: 18px
  iconUseState: true
  icon: oh:muell
  vertical: false
  title: =items.Muellkalender_Ergebnisstart1.state

Is it possible to format the Item State in the YAML to get the correct State description?

Use =items.Muellkalender_Ergebnisstart1.displayState

Hello!
sorry for my possibly silly question:
I’ve exactly the same problem: I want to change the format of an item state in YAML(the footer). Example is a short Statusdisplay of a computer:

component: oh-label-card
config:
  item: MacMini_Online
  title: Mac Mini
  footer: =items.MacMini_LastSeen.state
  background: =(items.MacMini_Online.state=="ON") ? "lightgreen" :"red"
  trendItem: MacMini_Online
  action: analyzer
  actionAnalyzerItems:
    - MacMini_Online
  icon: f7:desktopcomputer

What I would like to have is a display in the UI like:
2021-03-04 00:10 (Year, Month, Day, Hour, Minute )
instead of
2021-03-04T00:03:55.260+0100

I saw your explanation, but, where to edit the item metadata?
Actually, I have only .state and do not know where to define something like .displaystate

Thanks in advance
