[[mapping-date-format]]
=== `format`
In JSON documents, dates are represented as strings. Elasticsearch uses a set
of preconfigured formats to recognize and parse these strings into a long
value representing _milliseconds-since-the-epoch_ in UTC.
Besides the <<built-in-date-formats,built-in formats>>, your own
<<custom-date-formats,custom formats>> can be specified using the familiar
`yyyy/MM/dd` syntax:
[source,console]
--------------------------------------------------
PUT my_index
{
"mappings": {
"properties": {
"date": {
"type": "date",
"format": "yyyy-MM-dd"
}
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------
Many APIs which support date values also support <<date-math,date math>>
expressions, such as `now-1m/d` -- the current time, minus one month, rounded
down to the nearest day.
[[custom-date-formats]]
==== Custom date formats
Completely customizable date formats are supported. The syntax for these is explained
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/format/DateTimeFormatter.html[DateTimeFormatter docs].
[[built-in-date-formats]]
==== Built In Formats
Most of the below formats have a `strict` companion format, which means that
year, month and day parts of the week must use respectively 4, 2 and 2 digits
exactly, potentially prepending zeros. For instance a date like `5/11/1` would
be considered invalid and would need to be rewritten to `2005/11/01` to be
accepted by the date parser.
To use them, you need to prepend `strict_` to the name of the date format, for
instance `strict_date_optional_time` instead of `date_optional_time`.
These strict date formats are especially useful when
<<date-detection,date fields are dynamically mapped>> in order to make sure to
not accidentally map irrelevant strings as dates.
The following tables lists all the defaults ISO formats supported:
`epoch_millis`::
A formatter for the number of milliseconds since the epoch. Note, that
this timestamp is subject to the limits of a Java `Long.MIN_VALUE` and
`Long.MAX_VALUE`.
`epoch_second`::
A formatter for the number of seconds since the epoch. Note, that this
timestamp is subject to the limits of a Java `Long.MIN_VALUE` and `Long.
MAX_VALUE` divided by 1000 (the number of milliseconds in a second).
[[strict-date-time]]`date_optional_time` or `strict_date_optional_time`::
A generic ISO datetime parser, where the date must include the year at a minimum, and the time
(separated by `T`), is optional.
Examples: `yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ` or `yyyy-MM-dd`.
[[strict-date-time-nanos]]`strict_date_optional_time_nanos`::
A generic ISO datetime parser, where the date must include the year at a minimum, and the time
(separated by `T`), is optional. The fraction of a second
part has a nanosecond resolution.
Examples: `yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSSSSZ` or `yyyy-MM-dd`.
