# Data dictionary Increase's [API documentation](/documentation/api) references several repeated concepts like dates, currencies, and countries. ## Dates Dates are represented in the [ISO-8601](https://www.iso.org/iso-8601-date-and-time-format.html) date format, which is `YYYY-MM-DD`. For example, January 31, 2023 is `2023-01-31`. ## Times Times are represented in the [ISO-8601](https://www.iso.org/iso-8601-date-and-time-format.html) time format at the UTC offset, which is `YYYY-MM-DD'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'`. For example, January 31, 2023 at 7:05:22 Pacific Time is `2023-02-01T03:05:22Z`. ## Object identifiers Object identifiers are strings referencing objects and concepts within Increase's systems. They are always strings and are prepended with the type of object they refer to. For example, `account_123abc000` is a potential Account ID. Your code should treat them as opaque strings and not try to interpret the prefix. ## Currencies Increase will occasionally reference foreign currencies, for example, when an Increase Card is used at an international merchant. Currencies are represented in the Increase API as integers, using the minor unit of the currency. As an example, $12.34 will be represented by the integer `1234` and the symbol `USD`. Some common currencies are listed below. | Symbol | Name | Minor unit factor | | ------ | --------------- | ----------------- | | `CAD` | Canadian Dollar | 2 | | `CHF` | Swiss Franc | 2 | | `EUR` | Euro | 2 | | `GBP` | British Pound | 2 | | `JPY` | Japanese Yen | 0 | | `USD` | US Dollar | 2 | ## North American Industry Classification System codes The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) list of codes is a taxonomy of industries. Depending on your setup, you may be asked to submit the correct code for each of your users. Increase uses the [2022 version](https://www.naics.com/search/) of the NAICS codes. You can download the 2022 NAICS codes in CSV format [here](/naics-2022.csv). ## Countries Increase references countries by their [ISO-3166-1](https://www.iso.org/iso-3166-country-codes.html) alpha-2 code, reproduced below. | Code | Country name | | ---- | ---------------------------------------------------- | | `AF` | Afghanistan | | `AX` | Åland Islands | | `AL` | Albania | | `DZ` | Algeria | |
