Actually  for UTC I used Z instead of X  e g       time yyyy-MM-dd T hh mm ssZ     which gave me   2017-09-14T09 24 54-0400

Use     time yyyy-MM-dd T hh mm ss   to convert time into a particular timeformat  Here are other formats that you can use   yyyy MM dd HH mm ss SSS yyyy MM dd HH mm ss yyyy-MM-dd HH mm ss SSS yyyy-MM-dd HH mm ss MM dd yy HH mm ss   You can use Z character to get milliseconds too  For example   yyyy MM dd HH mm ssZ   gt  2017-01-25T10 29 00-0700 yyyy MM dd HH mm ss SSS Z    gt  2017-01-25T10 28 49 549Z   Most of the time yyyy MM dd HH mm ss SSS Z  is required in some APIs  It is better to know how to convert time into this format
