Allow other date formats
not on the roadmap

Using EPoch time isn't very user friendly as I can't get zapier to convert to that time.
IT would be great if you could change the API to accept other formats

It would be good to have written date formats available rather than only numeric. For example, November 19, 2021. I find this simpler when looking at list and table views. It helps to get a broad overview of the project, tasks, and timeline.

Date Custom Field - Time is hard to work with
Tim Fischer
Generally speaking, when using either the API, Zapier, Make, etc. to automate, if date and time are involved, it's usually a headache. Can you please make it so that Clickup will accept ISO date/time like every other internet app out there? Having to do "time": true in an API call and only use UNIX is very restrictive, especially when trying to set up simple automation in other platforms like Zapier or Make.
Here's a link to the API that deals with this: https://clickup.com/api/developer-portal/customfields/#date:~:text=123%20456%207890%22%20%7D-,Date,-The

Additionally, it makes things more robust internationally - being able to force a workspace presentation layer to (for instance) dd/mmm/yy would disambiguate date problems. As we all know 10/04/22 means entirely different things inside the USA vs the rest of the world! The travel industry widely use DDMMM (eg 10APR as opposed to 04OCT) for instance (and internally at some airlines too)
