Hi @MaximeRen ,

This is a time zone designator and represents UTC. It's been added to inform that the date conforms to ISO8601.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601

You can use the Epoch DateTime library to manipulate it, or you might also want to create a custom class derived from StringFormatter and override this VI to support your own format if this implementation does not fit your application's requirement directly.

Hi @francois-normandin ,

Sorry, i missed your answer. Thanks for the explanation and the link. I missed that I can override this function. It can help to have the link or a reference to the ISO_8601 in the description of the VI or in the block diagram.
