Date and time

Many endpoints allow you to specify date and time information relevant to your request. For example, you might want to search for assets uploaded on a particular date or create a link that expires at a particular time.

The default format of date and time information follows the ISO 8601 standard of yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss, where:

  • yyyy is the year
  • mm is the month
  • dd is the day
  • T is a placeholder denoting “time”
  • hh is the hour
  • mm is the minute
  • ss is the second

Our Web APIs also return date and time information in the ISO 8601 standard.

You can specify the returned date and time formats in the Search and DataTable APIs.
