Error when querying with dates

Describe the bug
When creating a work item query and using a date filter I get the error
"Operation failed: The string must have at least one character. Parameter name: wiql"

Environment:

• Browser firefox
• hosted (Azure Devops)
• If using a local installation what version

Screenshots
Here is a screenshot of the error.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Configure DevOps to use European date formats (2024-12-01)
2. Create a query against the work items and use a date value
3. See error

The wiql below was used
SELECT [System.Id], [System.WorkItemType], [System.ChangedDate], [System.Title], [System.Tags], [System.State] FROM workitems WHERE [System.ChangedDate] > '2024-07-07T00:00:00.0000000' AND [System.WorkItemType] = 'User Story' AND [System.State] = 'Closed' ORDER BY [System.ChangedDate]
I tried different formats like 5/7/2024 and 2024-07-05 and none of them works.

Even if I use the date selector through the UI I still get the same error. The editor must save the date value in some format the query engine can't understand. The wiql query looks fine including the date value (using ISO format).

Expected behavior
The query should work.

Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here.

No files or tests are named. Reproduce the problem in the WIQL editor with a date filter and inspect the generated query and request; done when date-filtered work item queries execute successfully with the documented date formats.
