The data fields in the APIs can be of following types:
Data Type | Description |
---|---|
Timestamp | Refers to timestamp (as per ISO8601) Typical Formats: yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss or yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss (see all accepted formats). Note:
The time format represents Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). For example, 2015-09-03 13:50:00 or 2015-09-03T13:50:00Z represents 01:50 p.m. (UTC) on September 09, 2015. Time Zones: The strings +hh:mm, +hhmm, -hh:mm, -hhmm can be appended to yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss in order to specify a time zone relative to UTC. For example, UTC+5:30 represents Indian Standard Time (IST) and hence 2015-09-03 13:50:00+05:30 represents 01:50 p.m. (IST) on September 09, 2015. Accepted date and time formats: a. yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss+hh:mm b. yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss+hhmm c. yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss-hh:mm d. yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss-hhmm Note: a. In all of the above, the space between yyyy-mm-dd and hh:mm:ss can be replaced with the letter T. For example, both 2015-09-30 12:00:00 and 2015-09-30T12:00:00 are acceptable. b. In all of the above the letter Z can be appended to hh:mm:ss. Both hh:mm:ss and hh:mm:ssZ refer to time in UTC. For example, both 2015-09-30T12:00:00 and 2015-09-30T12:00:00Z refer to the same time in UTC . |
