Frequently Asked Questions

What is an epoch timestamp?

An epoch timestamp (also called Unix timestamp) is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC (the Unix epoch). It's a common way to represent dates and times in computer systems, databases, and APIs.

How do I convert an epoch timestamp to a date?

Enter the epoch timestamp (in seconds) in the input field, and the tool will automatically convert it to a human-readable date and time. The tool supports both seconds-based timestamps (10 digits) and milliseconds-based timestamps (13 digits).

How do I convert a date to an epoch timestamp?

Use the date picker to select a date and time, and the tool will automatically calculate and display the corresponding epoch timestamp. You can also click "Use Current Time" to get the current timestamp.

What is the difference between seconds and milliseconds?

Unix timestamps are typically stored as seconds since the epoch (10 digits, e.g., 1704067200), but JavaScript and some systems use milliseconds (13 digits, e.g., 1704067200000). This tool automatically detects and handles both formats.

What timezone are the dates displayed in?

Dates are displayed in your local timezone, but the tool also shows UTC time for reference. Epoch timestamps are always in UTC by definition, regardless of timezone.

Can I use this for API debugging?

Yes! This tool is perfect for debugging APIs, database queries, and log files that use epoch timestamps. You can quickly convert timestamps to readable dates to understand when events occurred.
