Hi there, I need to send a date to Xano, but I have a problem with timestamp format.  
@Xano works in milliseconds (ie: 1604959474000) but it doesn’t work.  
I’ve tried a lot of formats and nothing…  
Does anyone know what the correct format is?

Hi Enrique @breadflix.es,

If you have a DateTime property, you can take the value from it and multiply it by 86 000 000 (which is 24 \* 60 \* 60 \* 1000).  
Adalo stores DateTimes and Dates as days since 1/1/1970, so this multiplication will get you the value in milliseconds .

Best regards, Victor.

Hi @AndreasAyoCruz,

I am not sure I understand your question.

Best,

Hi,  
You need to convert to UNIX XANO format which is in milliseconds if you don’t want to do it in XANO.

I have wrote that in another topic:

> [@Edit record from Xano](https://forum.adalo.com/t/edit-record-from-xano/27702/11):
>
> Hi @JL_LJ The problem when I create a record in Adalo with a date+time picker the date is not displayed correctly in xano. I will show you an example with screenshots: Let say I want to create a record with the following date/time: Tue, May 31, 2022: 7:19 PM. In the screenshot you also see how it is formatted When I the take a look in Xano the date+time is wrong.

86400 is the number of seconds in a day and 1000 is to convert to XANO miliseconds format

Date in XANO is UTC, Date in Adalo, is your App/Browsers location Date

When you say “Note Reminder” is this the “Starting Time”? Let’s say I clocked-in at 12PM and clocked-out at 7PM, I should have a total of 7-hours. How can I get this? Thanks much
