convert date format 1520577092413 to glide date

[eashwar]

Hello,

I am trying to convert date format retrieved from API to Glide Date/Time format

API Date - 1520577092413

Has anyone done that before ?

Thank you,

Eash

Hello,


Yes, the code is a lot simpler than first suggested:

var epochString = "1520577092413";
var gdt = new GlideDateTime();
gdt.setNumericValue(epochString);
gdt.getDisplayValue();

Hi Eashwar

You should be able to use the

GlideDateTime mehtod.

// Capture the milliseconds from the API you mentioned
var ms = '1520577092413';

// Create a GlideDateTime object
var gdt = new GlideDateTime();
gdt.subtract(gdt.getNumericValue()); // Resets the date to 0 so that we can add the milliseconds to the date
gdt.add(ms); // Adds the milliseconds to the date

var date = gdt.getDisplayValue(); // date should now contain the display value.
var numDate = gdt.getNumericValue(); // numDate should now contain the numeric value.
