I am trying to pull some data from Twitter, and the date format is "YYYY-mm-DDTHH:MM". What does T mean in "YYYY-mm-DDTHH:MM"?

1I think it just separates date from time – TostMaster Apr 20 '21 at 17:00

The T isn't substituted for a value, it's a character used in the output to designate that the second part is a Time.
For example: 2021-04-20T13:03
The format is part of the ISO 8601 international standard.
