# Timestamp to Date The Timestamp to Date block serves a similar purpose to the Format Date block but focuses on converting Unix timestamps to human-readable date formats. By simply inputting a Unix timestamp into this block, developers can obtain a formatted date string that represents the corresponding date and time. This block is particularly useful in scenarios where developers need to work with time data in human-readable form for display purposes or further processing. Whether it's displaying timestamps in user interfaces, generating time-based reports, or organizing time-related data in a readable format, the Timestamp to Date block simplifies the conversion process. --- # 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/timestamp-to-date.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.
