Defining datetime to get year

Can someone help me out with this

    print("Created On:",issue.fields.created) #Created On: 2021-07-16T11:07:54.000+0000
    datef = issue.fields.created.strip()
    dataspl,lixo = datef.split("T")
    datetimeobject = datetime.strptime(dataspl, '%Y-%m-%d')
    datetime_object = datetime.strftime(datetimeobject, '%d/%m/%Y')
    print(datetime_object) #16/07/2021

    if datetime_object.year == something
    AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'year'

Why is this appening? isnt the datetime_object weel define?

thanks

You should be getting the year attribute from the datetime object, not from the string representation. Try datetimeobject.year.

PS, avoid having both datetimeobject variable (a datetime object) and datetime_object variable. These names are too similiar, especially when datetime_object is lying about its type (it's a string, not a datetime object. Even you got confused).

datetime.strftime(datetimeobject, '%d/%m/%Y') returns a string, not a datetime object, so the datetime_object in datetime_object = datetime.strftime(datetimeobject, '%d/%m/%Y') is a string that "has no attribute 'year'"
