Hello Team,

I wants to convert Current Date/Time to EST Date/Time, to do some lookback period validation on one out API’s.

Could you please suggest the code to do the above requirement?

Hello @Aravind_1 ,

Have you been able to review the following thread here: Javascript Policy which covers most of what you are looking for (including reference code in Javascript). If yes, do you have any specific questions/concerns?

Hey,

Hope you’re keeping well.

In Apigee, you can handle time zone conversions directly with JavaScript or Python callouts, or using the Date functions in a JavaScript policy. For example, in JavaScript you can create a Date object from the current GMT time and use toLocaleString(“en-US”, { timeZone: “America/New_York” }) to get EST. Attach the script as a JavaScript policy in your API proxy flow, then store the converted timestamp in a variable for your lookback validation. This avoids relying on external services and keeps the logic within Apigee runtime.

Thanks and regards,
Taz
