How do I get an ISO 8601 date on iOS? (10 answers)

Closed 4 years ago.

I have a string which is coming from an API that I need to convert into a NSDate but I'm uncertain which dateFormat to use for NSDateFormatter.

let openedAt = "2015-06-30T12:34:00.000-04:00" // coming from API

let formatter = NSDateFormatter()
formatter.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd..." // not sure what format to use here

if let date = formatter.dateFromString(openedAt) {
    println(date)
} else {
    println("NOPE!")
}

Answer 1

try

 "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZZZZZ"

The Date Format Patterns guide suggests that "S" is the format specifier for fractions of seconds.
