Yii2 - validating ISO8601 datetime format with DateValidator

I have a ISO8601 datetime value in the following format (generated by JS):

var d = new Date(),
    dateString = d.toISOString(); // returns "2017-08-17T07:39:34.502Z"

In my model, I want to create a validation rule to validate this value.

I have tried the following format, but it is reporting that the datetime string is invalid:

public function rules()
{
    return [
        ...
        ['endTime', 'datetime', 'format' => 'php:DateTime::ATOM'],
        ...
    ];
}

I used DateTime::ATOM instead of DateTime::ISO8601 because that's what the PHP documentation itself recommends.

Any ideas how to make this work?

['endTime', 'date', 'format' => 'php:' . \DateTime::ATOM],

Edit: datetime was wrong - proper validator is date
