Problem
In IDM UserApp, I need to convert an attribute value saved in eDirectory as "milliseconds from 1970" to a readable date format.
Solution
Add the following code for reading the attribute into the form:
d=new Date(); d.setTime(IDVault.get(recipient,'user','endDate') *1000); p=d.getDate()+"."+d.getMonth()+"."+d.getFullYear();
Note that the Attribute end date must be added to the Directory Abstraction Layer.
