I searched for this topic and found the below thread:

I'm trying to preload the Time field of a node red dashboard ui form using the incoming msg, like so: [2021-08-31 22_21_23-Window] [{"id":"c1dce9ca4b3f9013","type":"ui_form","z":"30c224646f95e02b","name":"Date form","label":"","group":"903a6ab8.4f4ca8","order":1,"width":0,"height":0,"options":[{"label":"formDate","value":"formDate","type":"date","required":false,"rows":null},{"label":"formTime","value":"formTime","type":"time","required":false,"rows":null}],"formValue":{"formDate":"","formTim…

@dceejay mentioned in that thread that some solution will be available in V3.

        "order": 1,
        "disabled": false,

    }
]

and on dashboard form, I find that date field is prefilled correctly but time field is Empty.

Please advise how to solve this.

Thanks.

It is my understanding that the date and time fields can take a ISO timestamp or a js timestamp, or part of.
e.g.

[{"id":"0e8399675eac0a78","type":"inject","z":"30af2d3e.d94ea2","name":"","props":[{"p":"payload"},{"p":"topic","vt":"str"}],"repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"topic":"","payload":"{\"date\":\"2022-07-29\",\"time\":6600000}","payloadType":"json","x":190,"y":1820,"wires":[["e42debc79e43f9fe"]]},{"id":"e42debc79e43f9fe","type":"ui_form","z":"30af2d3e.d94ea2","name":"date_time_test","label":"table","group":"80c78b5e6273ec34","order":4,"width":17,"height":1,"options":[{"label":"date","value":"date","type":"date","required":true,"rows":null},{"label":"time","value":"time","type":"time","required":true,"rows":null}],"formValue":{"date":"","time":""},"payload":"","submit":"SAVE","cancel":"CANCEL","topic":"topic","topicType":"msg","splitLayout":true,"className":"","x":440,"y":1820,"wires":[["452090bc.b5229"]]},{"id":"5033290f.4fdcb8","type":"inject","z":"30af2d3e.d94ea2","name":"","props":[{"p":"payload"},{"p":"topic","vt":"str"}],"repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"topic":"","payload":"{\"date\":\"2022-07-29T00:00:00.000Z\",\"time\":\"1970-01-01T01:50:00.000Z\"}","payloadType":"json","x":160,"y":1880,"wires":[["e42debc79e43f9fe"]]},{"id":"3219fff3.989858","type":"inject","z":"30af2d3e.d94ea2","name":"","props":[{"p":"payload"},{"p":"topic","vt":"str"}],"repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"topic":"","payload":"{\"date\":1659117548752,\"time\":1659117548752}","payloadType":"json","x":159.3333282470703,"y":1925.3333740234375,"wires":[["e42debc79e43f9fe"]]},{"id":"452090bc.b5229","type":"debug","z":"30af2d3e.d94ea2","name":"","active":true,"tosidebar":true,"console":false,"tostatus":false,"complete":"false","statusVal":"","statusType":"auto","x":700,"y":1820,"wires":[]},{"id":"80c78b5e6273ec34","type":"ui_group","name":"test","tab":"b7e619d0975936a4","order":4,"disp":true,"width":"17","collapse":false,"className":""},{"id":"b7e619d0975936a4","type":"ui_tab","name":"batch_entry","icon":"dashboard","order":1,"disabled":false,"hidden":false}]

Yes, It Is an old unresolved issue.

I have found a workaround here Ui_text-input time picker not showing time in dashboard until refreshed - #17 by fmarzocca

One option is to drop the Dashboard time field and use an input field in a template node. Check the code below:
