I'm working with an API that need the time with this format: "currentTime": 1534431933321 - unit is in MS.

How can I create that in Laravel using carbon?

And how to set my host time with getting that from endpoint?

What you are looking for is called "UNIX Time", can accomplish this with Carbon:

//$nowInMs: returns 1534431933321
$nowInMs = now()->getTimeStampMs();  

//$letsParseValue: returns 1674799200000
$letsParseValue = \Carbon\Carbon::parse('2023-01-27 10:00:00')->getTimeStampMs();

For reference on other getters use: https://carbon.nesbot.com/docs/#api-getters

To verify the times use this website: https://currentmillis.com/
