Start of time

GET https://postman-echo.com/time/start?timestamp=2016-10-10&unit=month

A simple GET request to /time/start to return a relative timstamp in the past from the specified / current timestamp (as provided in the unit query parameter).

For instance, if the unit has been specified as month, the returned timestamp would indicate the beginning of the current month. Similar results are returned for other units of time, like: years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds

This endpoint accepts timestamp, locale, format, and strict query parameters to construct the date time instance to check against.

Responses are provided in JSON format, with a start key to indicate the result. The response code is 200 for valid query parameters, and 400 otherwise.
