I am getting my network devices’ uptime (device_class: timestamp) from the Ubiquity Unify intergration in this format: 2021-04-20T10:31:33.497185+02:00 Can anyone please help me to bring this into a better readable format like 20.04.2021 10:31 ? I guess I have to to do this with a template sensor…

Thanks for the shortcut. This too complex to read for a little cosmetic issue, imho.

I would like to check my own understanding here: That timestamp seems to be in the correct ISO format and the device class is timestamp, so HA will generally handle it properly (like using it on an entity card it won’t show milliseconds). Shouldn’t this be merely a case of presentation, meaning, how…

The EPIC Time Conversion and Manipulation Thread! Configuration

After seeing many threads on the forum asking for help with time conversions and calculations using time and realizing I generally had no real understanding of how time worked in HA I decided to dig in and try to figure it out. After over a week of internet and forum searches I think I’ve now got a lot of it figured out. I’m sure there is more that I don’t have here because sometimes “you don’t know what you don’t know”. So, since I didn’t know this stuff and because of the number of other pos…
