I’m using an API to generate contacts and tasks for those contacts.

I need that task’s due date and time to be specified.

All references I’ve found for the due date mention using the timestamp property, however this has never worked. The reminder due date is set, but in the same manner. Unset due date and time.

Reminder set using this --\> DateTimeOffset.Now.AddDays(5).ToUnixTimeMilliseconds()

how we set Due Date &Time ???

api.Engagement.Create(new EngagementHubSpotModel()  
{  
Engagement = new EngagementHubSpotEngagementModel()  
{  
Type = “TASK”,//used for file attachments  
OwnerId = TaskOwnerId  
},  
Metadata = new  
{  
body = TaskBody,  
subject = TaskSubject,  
status = “NOT\_STARTED”,  
taskType = “CALL”,  
priority = “MEDIUM”,  
timestamp = DateTimeOffset.Now.AddDays(5).ToUnixTimeMilliseconds(),  
sendDefaultReminder = true,  
reminders = DateTimeOffset.Now.AddDays(4).ToUnixTimeMilliseconds()  
},  
Associations = new EngagementHubSpotAssociationsModel()  
{  
ContactIds = new List\<long\>() { 3351 } //use the ID of the created contact from above contact.Id.Value  
},  
Attachments = new List\<EngagementHubSpotAttachmentModel\>()  
{  
//new EngagementHubSpotAttachmentModel()  
//{  
// Id = fileId  
//}  
}  
});

Hello @Jaycee_Lewis, Thank you for your response, however we still don’t understand how to set the task’s due date and time via an API call.  
We eagerly await your thoughtful response and solutions.
