The value coming in as either a string, or an integer is a headache or a types language to use like golang. I'm forced to ignore this field in my workflow unless the underlying type can be set to string or integer!

@DCalliet good catch! I can open a fix PR later this week to standardize the updatedOn field. The new format moving forward will be ISO 8601 since that's the format that's used by default in Mongoose across all projects.
