How to set today's date as default when updating Brevo contact via Zapier?

I want to update a contact in Brevo based on an action in another tool. Specifically the first time X button is clicked, I want to update a Contact record field with that date, so that I can then send a follow up email based on that action. 

Is there a way to set the default value in that Zap to be todays date? I’m triggering the Zap right after the button was clicked, so I know that that is the correct value.
