Get Current Time API

What it does

Current Time returns the current date and time as an ISO string plus a Unix timestamp. Send an optional tz query parameter to get the values for a specific time zone; if you omit it, the service uses UTC.

Use Current Time when you need a consistent server-side clock in your app, job runner, or integration. It is useful for stamping events, scheduling tasks, comparing timestamps, and normalising time values across services without relying on a client device’s local clock.

The response includes tz, iso, and unix. iso gives you the current date-time in a standard string format, while unix gives you the same moment as an integer timestamp. That makes it easy to store, display, or pass the value into downstream systems that expect either human-readable or machine-friendly time data.

If your workflow needs a simple way to read the current time in a known zone, Current Time keeps the response minimal and predictable.
