How to work with date in Unicode format?

Question

PHP

I work with the bank's API, and there the date / time comes in Unicode format:
$authDateTime = 1530083933281
I rummaged through everything, I just can't figure out how to process this string. Or is it just a timeStamp with some kind of timezone?

Answer 1

1. Correct Unicode e - it hurts your eyes
2. It's not clear what kind of Unicode we are talking about. It seems that this is a regular timestamp, but extra numbers have been added to the right. Most likely there is an error somewhere: either in yours or in the service API. You can try to simply cut them off (substr).

Answer 2

$authDateTime = 1530083933281;
echo date('d-m-Y H:i:s', time($authDateTime + (60 * 60)));

Answer 3

The last three digits are milliseconds, date does not understand them, so you need to cut them off.
echo date('d-m-Y H:i:s', $authDateTime / 3);
