Isn't that already the ISO format?

To parse it

Anyway as it is in ISO you can use datetime.fromisoformat(docs) to parse it, as it looks to be an iso format.

Following examples from the docs:

>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-11-04')
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 0)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-11-04T00:05:23')
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 5, 23)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-11-04 00:05:23.283')
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 5, 23, 283000)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-11-04 00:05:23.283+00:00')
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 5, 23, 283000, tzinfo=datetime.timezone.utc)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-11-04T00:05:23+04:00')   
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 5, 23,
    tzinfo=datetime.timezone(datetime.timedelta(seconds=14400)))

Alternatively, if it's another format you can use datetime.strptime (docs) given some format

To format it

To iso-format it, you can use datetime.isoformat (docs).

Following examples from the docs:

>>> from datetime import datetime, timezone
>>> datetime(2019, 5, 18, 15, 17, 8, 132263).isoformat()
'2019-05-18T15:17:08.132263'
>>> datetime(2019, 5, 18, 15, 17, tzinfo=timezone.utc).isoformat()
'2019-05-18T15:17:00+00:00'

  • Instead of posting a whole bunch of examples, you could just provide an answer to the OP's question, or just flag the question as a duplicate? – AlexK Jun 23 '22 at 21:54
  • I was trying to, in an indirect way, say "you can easily google that or read the manual", but it's a valid criticism, AlexK :) Sorry about that. – Casper Bang Jun 24 '22 at 10:31
