Syntax

ParseDate(dateString)

Parameters

• dateString (string): The date string to parse

Returns

• string: The parsed date in ISO 8601 format in UTC timezone

Examples

var result1 = ParseDate("2024-06-15")              # ISO format

var result2 = ParseDate("06/15/2024")              # US format

var result3 = ParseDate("15/06/2024")              # European format

var result4 = ParseDate("June 15, 2024")           # Text format
# All return normalized ISO format like "2024-06-15T00:00:00.000Z"
