Summary
The **Date/Time to Unix Epoch** component converts a given date and time value into a Unix Epoch timestamp. Optionally, the output can include milliseconds for higher precision.
Description
This component is useful for timekeeping, logging, scheduling, and synchronizing events across systems. Unix Epoch represents the number of seconds (or milliseconds) since **January 1, 1970 (UTC)**, and is a standard format used in many platforms and protocols.
Diagram:
Properties
- Milli Seconds (boolean) – If enabled, the output timestamp includes milliseconds; otherwise, it outputs seconds only.
