Hey Paul,

You probably want to check this page out - https://zapier.com/help/modifying-dates-and-times/. Putting it simply, if you want to put a timestamp, you can quite often feed this directly into your zap - {{zap_meta_human_now}}

If you need the formatting to be different, then you can do a date formatting step using the formatter to change that code snippet to anything you need.

I just found that same shortcut yesterday!

You can even have it automatically adjust for timezones. For that just use: {{zap_meta_pdt_iso}}, where you can replace "pdt" with whatever timezone you need.

Thanks @StuartJLans and @JimMoore So very much appreciated. I never saw a notification for the response and thought I better check. Clearly I back-burnered this until now :-)

Do either of you know a way to use {{zap_meta_human_now}} so that the output is just DD/MM/YYYY?

Many thanks

You would have to follow up the initial {{zap_meta_human_now}} with a formatter step where you can format the date into any format you want including the DD/MM/YYYY format.
