Incorrect year after unix time convert

Question

I have the following code. I'm trying to convert the unixtime to date format and i get a wrong year (Sun Mar 24 48447 18:26:27) instead of 2016.

//obj.uploadDate = 1466679630387
var uploadDate = new Date(obj.uploadDate * 1000);

How can this issue be fixed?

Answer 1

In your obj.fileName the timestamp is already in JavaScript timestamp (milliseconds) you don't need to multiply by 1000, just use

// obj.uploadDate = 1466679630387
var uploadDate = new Date(obj.uploadDate);
