Calendar APIs (Google Calendar, Outlook) accept Unix timestamps for event start and end times. Use "Date → Timestamp" mode to generate them.
Always store and compare scheduled times in UTC timestamps. Display in local timezone only in the UI to avoid confusion across timezones.
Cron jobs and scheduled tasks in Unix use timestamps to determine when to run. Convert your target date to verify the correct Unix time.
