Standards and algorithms

Date and time

Defines the standardized format for timestamps in logs, certificates, and API data to ensure consistency and interoperability. All date and time values in Net iD Portal use the ISO 8601 format.

  • {YYYY}-{MM}-{DD} (e.g. 2016-01-22)

  • {HH}:{MM}:{SS} (e.g. 08:45:50)

  • {YYYY}-{MM}-{DD} {HH}:{MM}:{SS} (e.g. 2016-01-22 08:45:50)
