AWSDateTime

The AWSDateTime scalar type provided by AWS AppSync, represents a valid extended ISO 8601 DateTime string. In other words, this scalar type accepts datetime strings of the form YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.SSSZ. The scalar can also accept "negative years" of the form -YYYY which correspond to years before 0000. For example, "-2017-01-01T00:00Z" and "-9999-01-01T00:00Z" are both valid datetime strings. The field after the two digit seconds field is a nanoseconds field. It can accept between 1 and 9 digits. So, for example, "1970-01-01T12:00:00.2Z", "1970-01-01T12:00:00.277Z" and "1970-01-01T12:00:00.123456789Z" are all valid datetime strings. The seconds and nanoseconds fields are optional (the seconds field must be specified if the nanoseconds field is to be used). The time zone offset is compulsory for this scalar. 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.
