API Dates format

[maicol07]

Hi,

I can't understand the format of the dates returned by the API... They seems to be ISO8601, RFC3339_EXTENDED, or ATOM but none of these worked in my tests.

Example date:

2020-06-20T14:01:04.855230389Z

Can you help me?

UPDATE: I've realized that is the ISO8601 format, but I think that nanoseconds are too much (I'm trying to manipulate the date with PHP, but it doesn't support nanoseconds (microseconds are its maximum). Maybe it's better to change nanoseconds to microseconds or milliseconds if you want to keep these; otherwise the simple seconds are a good choice, as well

Thanks

hey there @maicol07 , you are correct, timestamps in JSON are in ISO8601 format, and the database records durations as nanoseconds. I previously had issues with big float's inside of SQLite, MySQL, and Postgres, so I decided to use integer's as nanoseconds.

I've figured it out. Maybe if this format can be changed only in the API would be better in order to improve compatibility with other systems

I’ll close this issue for now.
