downloads.DownloadTime

The DownloadTime type of the downloads API represents the time a download took to complete.

Type

A DownloadTime can be one of three different types:

  • a JavaScript Date object.
  • a string:
    • if this contains only digits, it's interpreted as the number of milliseconds since the UNIX epoch.
    • otherwise, it's interpreted as an ISO 8601 string.
  • a number: this is interpreted as the number of milliseconds since the UNIX epoch.
