Note

Timestamps used in the XML response comply with the ISO 8601 standard for date and time representation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601. Time stamps are also aware of time zone (offset from UTC). Time zone designators are appended after the the time part of timestamp string. If the time is in UTC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time)Z is added directly after the time without a space. Z is the zone designator for the zero UTC offset e.g., 2017-09-22T01:00:00.000Z . If there is an offset from UTC, this is designated by appending +/-HH:MM after the timestamp string, e.g., 2017-09-22T01:00:00.000-05:00 (UTC-5).
