# Get Timestamp Offset The Get Timestamp Offset block is a valuable addition to the GraphLinq IDE, empowering developers to manipulate timestamps by adding or subtracting time intervals. With this block, users can specify a time duration, such as hours, minutes, seconds, or even milliseconds, and apply it to the current Unix timestamp. This block finds applications in scenarios where actions need to be triggered after a specific time delay or when developers need to determine timestamps for events in the future or the past. By incorporating the Get Timestamp Offset block into their graphs, developers can streamline time-based decision-making processes and create dynamic workflows that adapt to changing time conditions. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.graphlinq.io/dev-tooling/blocks/time/get-timestamp-offset.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
