Frequently Asked Questions

What timestamp formats are supported?
Supports Unix timestamps (seconds since epoch), Unix timestamps with milliseconds, and ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.sssZ).
Can I generate timestamps for a specific date range?
Yes! You can set start and end dates to generate random timestamps within any time period. Perfect for testing date-sensitive features.
What is Unix timestamp?
Unix timestamp represents the number of seconds since January 1, 1970 (UTC). It's a common way to store dates in databases and APIs.
Can I use this for load testing?
Yes! Generate thousands of timestamps for creating test data with realistic date distributions. Perfect for populating databases.
What's the range of possible timestamps?
Our tool supports dates from year 1970 to 2100+. This covers essentially any practical use case for modern applications.
Are timestamps timezone-aware?
Unix timestamps are always UTC. ISO timestamps include timezone information (Z suffix for UTC). Both formats are unambiguous.
