using the rest api, what are valid inputs for a date/time field?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
When working with the REST API in NetSuite, the valid inputs for a date/time field are typically in the ISO 8601 format, which is
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ
. For example,
2019-06-12T18:00:00Z
is a valid input. However, it's important to note that the date/time format can be influenced by the user's locale settings in NetSuite. For example, in the US, the date format is typically
MM/DD/YYYY
, while in the UK, it's
DD/MM/YYYY
. When you're setting a date/time field in a script, you can use a native JavaScript Date object. If you're getting the date/time from a JSON object, you might need to parse it first. If you're getting an "Invalid Date" error, it could be due to a formatting issue. For example, if the date/time string includes milliseconds or is in a different format than expected, you might need to adjust it before setting the field. In SuiteScript 2.0, you can use the
format.format
function to format the date/time string. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
