Using of esriFieldTypeDate field in Add Features REST service?

Question

I need to use Add Features REST service to add a new record to a table in an ArcSDE geodatabase.

One of the field is type of esriFieldTypeDate, but I don't know how to populate this field in JSON script. An example is as follows:

[
    {
      "attributes" : {
        "LOCATION_ID" : 30,
        "LOCATION_NAME" : "SDAF",
        "LOCATION_STATUS" : "IN USE",
        "GEOMETRY_ID" : 30,
        "CREATE_DATE" : "2008/06/16 00:00:00 AM"
      }
    }
]

Column "CREATE_DATE" is of esriFieldTypeDate type. But the above JSON ended up with an error.

Answer 1

attributes: The feature attributes. It is a JSON object that contains a dictionary of name-value pairs. The names are the feature field names. The values are the field values and they can be any of the standard JSON types - string, number and boolean. Note that date values are encoded as numbers. The number represents the number of milliseconds since epoch (January 1, 1970) in UTC.

That is what the Esri REST endpoint help says.
