What is Timestamp Converter?
Timestamp Converter is a powerful date and time conversion tool that allows you to convert between UNIX timestamps and human-readable date formats. It handles both milliseconds and seconds precision timestamps, making it essential for developers, system administrators, and data analysts.
This tool supports bidirectional conversion: you can convert timestamps to ISO date strings and vice versa. It automatically detects timezone information and provides accurate conversions using JavaScript's built-in Date object, ensuring compatibility with web applications and databases.
Whether you're debugging timestamp issues in your code, analyzing log files, working with APIs that use timestamps, or converting between different date formats for data processing, this converter provides instant, accurate results with proper timezone handling.
What Problems Does It Solve?
Developer Debugging
Helps developers quickly convert timestamps to readable dates when debugging applications, APIs, or database queries.
Data Analysis
Enables data analysts to convert timestamp data from logs, databases, or APIs into human-readable formats for analysis.
System Administration
Assists system administrators in interpreting timestamp data from system logs, monitoring tools, and configuration files.
API Integration
Simplifies working with APIs that use timestamps by providing easy conversion between different date formats.
How to Use Timestamp Converter
Choose Mode
Select "Timestamp → Date" to convert a timestamp to readable date, or "Date → Timestamp" to convert a date to timestamp format.
Enter Data
Input your timestamp (in milliseconds) or date string (ISO format or local format) in the left pane and click Run.
Get Result
View the converted result in the right pane. Copy the result to use in your applications, databases, or documentation.
Timestamp Conversion Tips:
- • UNIX timestamps can be in seconds (10 digits) or milliseconds (13 digits) - the tool handles both formats
- • ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ) is the standard for date strings in APIs and databases
- • Always consider timezone implications when working with timestamps in different systems
- • For JavaScript applications, timestamps are typically in milliseconds since January 1, 1970 UTC
- • When debugging, convert timestamps to see exact dates and times for better understanding
- • Use this tool to validate timestamp formats before implementing in your applications
