In MySQL, the standard format for datetime is
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS1. This represents a combination of date and time values, whereYYYYstands for the four-digit year,MMsignifies two-digit month,DDrefers to two-digit day,HHpoints to hours ranging from 00 to 23,MMindicates minutes andSS, seconds2.When you query data from a DATETIME column, MySQL displays the DATETIME value in this format3. When you insert a value into a DATETIME column, you use the same format3.
Here’s an example of how you can insert a datetime into a MySQL database:
In this example, replace
table_namewith the name of your table anddatetime_columnwith the name of your datetime column.If you want to format the date in a specific way, you can use the
DATE_FORMAT()function in MySQL4. Here’s an example:In this example,
%Wgives the weekday name in full (Sunday to Saturday),%Mgives the month name in full (January to December),%egives the day of the month as a numeric value (0 to 31), and%Ygives the year as a numeric, 4-digit value4.Remember to replace
datetime_columnandtable_namewith your actual column and table names.Thanks
