How to convert string date to dateobject and get the year when string date value is in format 2021-01-22T11:36:52.387000+01:00 with datetime?

Question

I tried this:

 timestamp = "2021-01-22T11:36:52.387000+01:00"
 timestampObject = datetime.strptime(timestamp, '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S')

But gave me error:

ValueError: unconverted data remains: .150000+01:00

What is the rest reprisenting and how do I convert the rest? Also what does the 'T' mean?

Answer 1

This worked for me:

timestampObject = datetime.fromisoformat(
 "2021-01-22T11:36:52.387000+01:00" ).date()

 print('timestampObject.year: ', timestampObject.year) 

timestampObject.year: 2021
