date-time
This module contains functions that let you work with dates and times.
Functions
Returns a timestamp that represents a point in time after the specified period from the specified date. Available since 2018.2.42881 Parameters Name Type Description timestamp number, object, string The base date value. duration number, string, Period A duration as a number (in milliseconds), string representation, or period as retrieved from a custom field or returned by the toPeriod() function. The string representation is a series of numeric values followed by the abbreviation that represents the timespan, in descending order. For example, 3w4d23h58m. Return Value Type Description number The resulting timestamp. Returns a timestamp that represents a point in time before the specified period from the specified date. Available since 2018.2.42881 Parameters Name Type Description timestamp number, object, string The base date value. duration number, string, Period A duration as a number (in milliseconds), string representation, or period as retrieved from a custom field or returned by the toPeriod() function. The string representation is a series of numeric values followed by the abbreviation that represents the timespan, in descending order. For example, 3w4d23h58m. Return Value Type Description number The resulting timestamp. Creates a string representation of a Unix timestamp. Parameters Name Type Description timestamp number, object, string The timestamp to format as a string. format string The date format to apply to the output. If no value is specified, the date format is supplied by the system. For actions that are attributed to the current user, the date format setting from the profile for the current user is applied. For actions that are attributed to the workflow user account, the global date fields format setting is applied. For format description, see https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html. timeZoneId string The ID of a time zone. Applies an offset to the original timestamp, which is in UTC. If no value is specified, the time zone is supplied by the system. For actions that are attributed to the current user, the local time zone setting from the profile for the current user is applied. For actions that are attributed to the workflow user account, the global default time zone is applied. For a list of time zone IDs, see JodaTime. Return Value Type Description string A string representation of the specified timestamp. Parses a string representation of a date to return a Unix timestamp. Use this method instead of the Date.parse() method from JavaScript. For a detailed explanation, refer to the MDN documentation. Parameters Name Type Description dateTimeString string The string representation of a date. formats string, Array.<string> A date format that possibly matches the dateTimeString or an array of formats. If an array is provided, the formats are applied sequentially until the dateTimeString is parsed successfully. If no value is specified, the date format is supplied by the system. For actions that are attributed to the current user, the date format setting from the profile for the current user is applied. For actions that are attributed to the workflow user account, the global date fields format setting is applied. For format description, see https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html. timeZoneId string The ID of a time zone in which the dateTimeString occurs. This parameter is only effective when the format that matches the string does not provide any timestamp information. If neither the format that successfully matches the string nor this parameter provide the time zone, the time zone is supplied by the system. For actions that are attributed to the current user, the local time zone setting from the profile for the current user is applied. For actions that are attributed to the workflow user account, the global default time zone is applied. For a list of time zone IDs, see JodaTime. Return Value Type Description number A timestamp representation of the specified string. Creates a period representation of an argument. Parameters Name Type Description period number, string A duration in milliseconds as either a number or a string. The string representation is a series of numeric values followed by the abbreviation that represents the timespan, in descending order. For example, 3w4d23h58m. Return Value Type Description Period The period representation of the specified argument. Exampleafter
