How to convert JSON time stamp in javascript to date and time?

Question

I am getting Time stamp as "2020-03-02T05:50:31.000Z"

How to convert this to Normal Readable Format with Date and Time Zone

What is `Normal Readable Format` to you? For me, you already have it. Also, what have you tried? Plenty of questions already deal with date/time formatting in JavaScript. — fredrik, Mar 09 '20 at 07:01
use new Date("2020-03-02T05:50:31.000Z"), and then use different methods to get the date in format you want. — shubham-gupta, Mar 09 '20 at 07:03

const parsedDate = new Date("2020-03-02T05:50:31.000Z");
console.log(parsedDate.toGMTString())
//"Mon, 02 Mar 2020 05:50:31 GMT"
console.log(parsedDate.toLocaleString())
//"3/2/2020, 11:20:31 AM"
console.log(parsedDate.toDateString(), parsedDate.toTimeString())
//Mon Mar 02 2020 11:20:31 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)

In java-script above date format can be parsed by using Date.

Eg:

var date = new Date('2020-03-02T05:50:31.000Z');

I don't know what you mean readable format but you can use following methods:

new Date('2020-03-02T05:50:31.000Z').toLocaleString();
// outputs date according to user locale settings

Or you can use getYear, getMonth, getDay methods to get them and format date as you want

why the intermediate Date.parse? – Jaromanda X Mar 09 '20 at 07:15
You likely mean *getDate*, which gets the day of the month, not *getDay* (which gets the day of the week), – RobG Mar 09 '20 at 13:25

You can use moment.js for date time format and conversion.
Pass your date timestamp as below:

moment.parseZone("2020-03-02T05:50:31.000Z").format("DD-MM-YYYY hh:mm:ss z Z")

Modify format as you need ref mentioned here

Use in your code as mentioned here
