How to convert ISO8601 date format into a Bubble date format?

Need help APIs
1

Hi,

I’m using some APIs which return dates in an ISO8601 format:
Example: 2023-06-05T21:30:00

I want to extract only the date from this format and convert it into a ddd, dd mmm 'yy format, which Bubble should recognise as a date.

What would be the best way to achieve this?

Thanks!
Sam

Hi there! We’ve just developed a fantastic plugin for managing lists, and one of its handy features is text-to-date conversion.

Although the plugin isn’t currently available on the marketplace, we’d be thrilled to authorize your app for free if you’re interested.

Just let us know, and kindly send us your application ID. We look forward to hearing from you!

No, its full name is Listopia [List Handler]

There should be no need to search, usually it is the first plugin in the list.
Can you refresh once?

Hi @NoCodeDataArtisan,

I think I need some guidance on how to use the plugin.
In my case I am displaying a date which comes from an API response. The date is text and has this ISO8601 format: 2023-06-05T21:30:00

The goal is to display the date in this format: ddd, dd mmm 'yy
It should be displayed as a date, not text, so I can then use the date to do some date calculations later on.

How can I achieve this with the plugin?

Thanks again!
Sam
