I’m trying to convert a date from string format to a datetime format. I think that I’m using the right format, but the error is still raised.
Code example:
from datetime import datetime, timedelta format = "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.000Z" inctime='2022-03-21T19:55:23.577Z' time=datetime.strptime(inctime,formato2)
Error:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "C:Usersuser1AppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython310lib_strptime.py", line 568, in _strptime_datetime tt, fraction, gmtoff_fraction = _strptime(data_string, format) File "C:Usersuser1AppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython310lib_strptime.py", line 349, in _strptime raise ValueError("time data %r does not match format %r" % ValueError: time data '2022-03-21T19:55:23.577Z' does not match format '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.000Z'

Answer
Your code wasn’t reading the microseconds properly. You can read microseconds with %f
Try using this code, this will fix the issue:
from datetime import datetime, timedelta inctime='2022-03-21T19:55:23.577Z' format = "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%fZ" time = datetime.strptime(inctime,format)
