Confiforms: how do I convert a string to date? for example 2024-10-25 to timestamp

How do I convert a string to date? for example 2024-10-25 to timestamp

My JIRA API returns a field with customfield for example

entry.jiraissue.fields.customfield_24100 returns 2014-10-25 as a string. 

I'd like to convert it to a date field in confiforms by setting:

date=[entry.jiraissue.fields.customfield_24100] and it doesn't work.

Thanks.

date=[entry.jiraissue.fields.customfield_24100.parseDate(yyyy-MM-dd).timestamp]

Great. Thanks, Alex. I just founded it out myself as well but you beats me by 2 mins. lol.

Much appreciated.
