AWSDate

The AWSDate scalar type provided by AWS AppSync, represents a valid extended ISO 8601 Date string. In other words, this scalar type accepts date strings of the form YYYY-MM-DD. The scalar can also accept "negative years" of the form -YYYY which correspond to years before 0000. For example, "-2017-05-01" and "-9999-01-01" are both valid dates. This scalar type can also accept an optional time zone offset. For example, "1970-01-01", "1970-01-01Z", "1970-01-01-07:00" and "1970-01-01+05:30" are all valid dates. The time zone offset must either be Z (representing the UTC time zone) or be in the format ±hh:mm:ss. The seconds field in the timezone offset will be considered valid even though it is not part of the ISO 8601 standard.
