Comment (by LaustDeleuran):

 Reacting late to @jnylen0's request to repost my issue from #38986 here.
 Basically, the documentation implies full ISO 8601 compliance, but the API
 only works when you include a full date and time, ie. `YYYY-MM-
 DDTHH:MM:SS`. For instance, this fails, even though I'm passing a valid
 ISO 8601 date:
 http://demo.wp-api.org/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?before=2016-11-29

 The documentation should either specify the specific format that the
 `before`/`after` parameters require, or support full ISO 8601. In my
 opinion, the latter would be preferred.

 Thanks.
