Hi all,

I have recently finished the neo4j Graph Data Science course and wanted to challenge myself by doing some fullstack development work.

[https://github.com/vercel/next.js/blob/canary/examples/with-apollo-neo4j-graphql/README.md](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/blob/canary/examples/with-apollo-neo4j-graphql/README.md)

Using the guide/template from above, I wanted to create Next app similar to the

> [Building Neo4j Applications with Node.js | Node.js | Free Neo4j Courses from GraphAcademy](https://graphacademy.neo4j.com/courses/app-nodejs/)

but I encountered the following error as shown below:

```auto
Error! number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-11-22 number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-12-15 number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-12-22 number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-12-22 number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-12-08 number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-12-15 number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-12-15 number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-12-22 number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-12-22 number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-11-17 number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-11-17 number format error: 

```

I am using the AuraDB account credentials as backend to this next app.

I am quite new to node and frameworks so do forgive if I am overlooking something obvious.

> Note when I query the data for the dates in the Error! number format error: interior "-" character: 1995-11-22, the AuraDB is saved as string but when I "npm run dev" it is converted to integer for some unknown reason

Hope to have some help with this
