Hi All
In my rows there is not a date for me to pull from but I want my Zap to insert {Today’s Date} into my excel sheet - is there a formula or something I can write to get it to do that without pulling it from somewhere?

Depending what you’re doing after the spreadsheet step, you might be able to accomplish this with the TODAY function in Excel.
Just use {{zap_meta_human_now}}
Here’s the article on using it: https://zapier.com/help/create/customize/insert-the-time-your-zap-runs-into-a-field
If you need only the date, try using a formatter step and transforming {{zap_meta_human_now}} to a format that suits you better.
Hey all! I just wanted to pop in here to confirm that using =Today() in the date field would automatically add the current date into your Excel spreadsheet in M/D/YYYY format . For example:
Would appear in Excel as 3/9/2022:
And using {{zap_meta_human_now}} would add both the current date and time.
So it would appear in MM/DD/YY hh:mmA format:
If there’s a specific date format you’re after you could use a Formatter (Date / Time > Format) step to convert the date into the desired format:
So for the above example 03/09/22 02:13PM (MM/DD/YY hh:mmA) then becomes 03-09-2022 (MM-DD-YYYY):
