2024-02-29T23:30:00 | 2024 |
2024-12-31T23:30:00Z | 2024 |

Good to know
- Time zone: a value that carries a UTC offset (for example
2025-01-01T01:00:00+02:00) is first converted to UTC, and the part is read from the UTC value. A value without an offset, or ending inZ, is used as it is. - An empty or invalid Date (for example
2023-02-29ornot a date) stops the step with an error.
