Non-standard date output format difficult to parse

Open rbrady opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

The date signed tabs return a format like '11/22/2022 | 10:02 AM PST' which is nearly impossible to parse and retain the timezone info. Why doesn't Docusign use the isoformat or a standards-based time output format? Why not store as UTC and allow the conversion to happen closer to the end user? Because the actual offset from UTC isn't provided, how do I determine if the date is American or Australian PST for instance?
