LastModifiedDate as DD/MM/YYYY (any variation/order) in Octopus

Hello API team,

I am currently trying to collect /Address/LastModifyDate from AbEntry using octopusAPI to be able to include it in my SearchQuery as Address/LastModifyDate: { $EQ: Yesterday} to reduce the data exported. I have a script that collects yesterday' date.

I tried getting the DisplayValue and Value from the field but a time is attached to each. Please let me know how to proceed or if you guys have any tips and tricks to retrieve the field. Thank you team!
