Free Timestamp API: Get Current Unix Timestamp Easily

Timestamp APIs provide real-time Unix timestamps, simplifying time management in applications. This guide explores free APIs for fetching timestamps in seconds or milliseconds, ideal for programming and Discord, with DevUtils’ validation tool.

Timestamp API Overview

A timestamp API returns the current Unix timestamp, counting seconds or milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC. For example, 1694870400 is September 16, 2023, 00:00:00 UTC (Keywords: unix timestamp in seconds or milliseconds).

Recommended Free APIs

• DevUtils API: /api/timestamp

Returns: <"timestamp":1747061294,"timestamp_ms":1747061294796>

Calling the API

• JavaScript:

fetch('https://api.devutils.top/timestamp')
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => console.log(data.timestamp));  // Output: 1694870400

• Python:

import requests
response = requests.get('https://api.devutils.top/timestamp')
print(response.json()['timestamp_ms'])  // Output: 1694870400000

Use Cases

• Programming: Real-time logging, event tracking.
• Discord: Generate dynamic timestamps, e.g., <t:1694870400:F> (Keywords: Unix timestamp for Discord).
• SQL: Store timestamps in databases (Keywords: timestamp sql).

Verification Tool

DevUtils’ Timestamp Converter validates API timestamps:

• Check dates from timestamps.
• Convert dates to timestamps, including Discord formats.
