Incorrect timestamp parsing

[paymog]

I'm having trouble parsing a timestamp correctly in vector

$ parse_timestamp!("2024-07-29T14:13:44.573709634Z", "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%fZ")
t'2024-07-29T19:13:44.573709634Z'

As far as I can tell, this should resolve to an hour of 14 not 19 (I'm 5 hours behind UTC) and when I test it here I get the right output (adjusted for my local time zone)

How do I tell vector that this string is in fact time UTC time and not my local time zone?

Hi @paymog ,

In your pattern Z is matched as a literal so the timestamp is interpreted as a timestamp without a timezone, which is why it uses the local timezone. I think you want: parse_timestamp!("2024-07-29T14:13:44.573709634Z", "%+") which will use the timezone from the timestamp.

Well I'm an idiot...

Thanks for the help!
