I can get the formatter to change other date formats, just not from epoch time.

Hello Steven,

When using UNIX timestamp format, please first apply the "toNumber" filter, and then the Date filter.

I did the toNumber, and the put the date filter on, now I get a blank page. The response is already a number 1391458080462

any ideas?

thanks

Hello Steven,

The response is a string, that's why it first need a toNumber filter.
Please paste the code generated by the formatter, after the two formats are applied on the date.

Hi Steve,
Seems your date is not a proper unix timestamp. It is in milliseconds instead of seconds ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time )... so you need to divide by 1000 first.
Also - some of your records do not have generatedDate.

Hello,
You can divide by 1000 in the Format Field that appears when you open the Data Bindings Formatter - just enter /1000 there.

OK, Did that. The /1000 works, the convert to number works, but when the format date is applied, the whole page shows no return. Tried to apply it with or without the "toNumber".

Hi, it seems that this time is not present for each of your records. which seems to cause the issue. Please try using this code only:
{{(inboundInfo.departureTime /1000).toNumber( ).formatDate( "dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm" ) : "not set!"}}

I downloaded your json file and tested this locally. This code works fine:

{{inboundInfo.departureTime ? (inboundInfo.departureTime /1000).toNumber( ).formatDate( "dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm" ) : "not set"}}

can you send me the code you have on the html page, as it still does not work for me. If you are looking at the json file. I can get the "generatedDate" to work but not the tree level below ex. "inboundInfo.departureTime".
Page just shows up blank
thanks

Sorry did not work. Not converting the time correctly. All the data shows at least.

Well,
How do you expect it to be Fri, 27 Jun 2014 21:55:00 when your date format is "dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm"? Of course it is converting the date correctly, following the date format you are using.
You can setup the formatter in the format you need: "dd MM yyyy HH:mm:ss", but we do not support date and month names like "monday" or "June"

I am not sure what you mean. Just look an the code and my format is h:mma
{inboundInfo.arrivalTime ? (inboundInfo.arrivalTime /1000).toNumber( ).formatDate( "h:mma" ) : "not set"}}

I just want the time.

Check out the 2nd record. returns as 00:23pm how is that formatting properly? I have the unformatted field next to it. Put that into any epoch time converter out there and it returns correctly.

I see what you were saying on the format. that is not the issue. Not concerned so much on the format as I am with it actually calculating it correctly. What I was pointing out is it is retuning the date incorrectly, not the format.

It is not converting properly.

The UNIX time format is using UTC (Coordinated Universal Time): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time

The javascript time conversion converts the date/time format to user's Time Zone because of this fact. That's why you see it different.

This isn't the issue. this topic says you have a problem and needs to be corrected. The timezone difference would not output 00:23pm. There is no such time in any timezone.

I found this topic that says it will be fixed in the next release. Whenever that is.
