Convert Snap-To Time to Epoch Time

Hi everyone!

My time picker token spits out values like "-60m@m" and I want to convert this time value into an epoch time so I can filter based on epoch time. How do I convert this? Can I use strptime() to do it? What format would I tell strptime() the time is in?

Thank you!
