`HPEXPIREAT` has the same effect and semantics as [`HEXPIREAT`]({{< relref "/commands/hexpireat" >}}), but the Unix time at
which the field will expire is specified in milliseconds since Unix epoch instead of seconds.

## Options

The `HPEXPIREAT` command supports a set of options:

* `NX` -- For each specified field, set expiration only when the field has no expiration.
* `XX` -- For each specified field, set expiration only when the field has an existing expiration.
* `GT` -- For each specified field, set expiration only when the new expiration is greater than current one.
* `LT` -- For each specified field, set expiration only when the new expiration is less than current one.

A non-volatile key is treated as an infinite TTL for the purposes of `GT` and `LT`.
The `NX`, `XX`, `GT`, and `LT` options are mutually exclusive.

## Example

```
redis> HSET mykey field1 "hello" field2 "world"
(integer) 2
redis> HPEXPIREAT mykey 1715704971000 FIELDS 2 field1 field2
1) (integer) 1
2) (integer) 1
redis> HPTTL mykey FIELDS 2 field1 field2
1) (integer) 303340
2) (integer) 303340
```

## Return information

{{< multitabs id="hpexpireat-return-info" 
    tab1="RESP2" 
    tab2="RESP3" >}}

One of the following:
* [Array reply](../../develop/reference/protocol-spec#arrays). For each field:
    - [Integer reply](../../develop/reference/protocol-spec#integers): `-2` if no such field exists in the provided hash key, or the provided key does not exist.
    - [Integer reply](../../develop/reference/protocol-spec#integers): `0` if the specified NX, XX, GT, or LT condition has not been met.
    - [Integer reply](../../develop/reference/protocol-spec#integers): `1` if the expiration time was set/updated.
    - [Integer reply](../../develop/reference/protocol-spec#integers): `2` when `HEXPIRE` or `HPEXPIRE` is called with 0 seconds or milliseconds, or when `HEXPIREAT` or `HPEXPIREAT` is called with a past Unix time in seconds or milliseconds.
* [Simple error reply](../../develop/reference/protocol-spec#simple-errors):
    - if parsing failed, mandatory arguments are missing, unknown arguments are specified, or argument values are of the wrong type or out of range.
    - if the provided key exists but is not a hash.
