timestamp.get_minute

Supported in:
timestamp.get_minute(unix_seconds [, time_zone])

Description

This function returns an integer in the range [0, 59] representing the minute.

  • unix_seconds is an integer representing the number of seconds past Unix epoch, such as $e.metadata.event_timestamp.seconds, or a placeholder containing that value.
  • time_zone is optional and is a string representing a time zone. If omitted, the default is "GMT". You can specify time zones using string literals. The options are:
    • The TZ database name, for example "America/Los_Angeles". For more information, see the "TZ Database Name" column from this page
    • The time zone offset from UTC, in the format(+|-)H[H][:M[M]], for example: "-08:00".

Here are examples of valid time_zone specifiers, which you can pass as the second argument to time extraction functions:

"America/Los_Angeles", or "-08:00". ("PST" is not supported)
"America/New_York", or "-05:00". ("EST" is not supported)
"Europe/London"
"UTC"
"GMT"

Param data types

Code samples

Example 1

In this example, the time_zone argument is omitted, so it defaults to "GMT".

$ts = $e.metadata.collected_timestamp.seconds

timestamp.get_hour($ts) = 15
Example 2

This example uses a string literal to define the time_zone.

$ts = $e.metadata.collected_timestamp.seconds

timestamp.get_hour($ts, "America/Los_Angeles") = 15
