In a number of places Squirro supports format strings to specify how numbers and dates are displayed or processed. |
This page documents these various format strings.
Python Datetime format
For datetime formatting, such as the input format of the data loader, Python datetime format strings are used.
For example the Squirro standard format of 2018-12-25T11:19:20 is written in this syntax as %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.
This table lists the most commonly used format directives. See also the Python documentation for datetime format strings for a more complete reference.

This table lists the most commonly used format directives. See also the Moment.js documentation for date tokens for a more complete reference.
