Hello, 

I’m looking to have a countdown to a certain date (27th March) and would like to get a text message/email every day until that date - with how many days until that date. 

Is it possible to do this via Zapier, and how, please? I can’t seem to find a relevant Zap for it. 

Thank you in advance,

Jakub

Hi @jroj 

Try using a Schedule (Daily) Zap trigger followed by a Filter step.

Hi @jroj

Hi @Troy Tessalone,

I don’t know what I should put in the Filter - makes sense to schedule, especially for something like ‘- days until...’

Thank you!

Also try using this Zap step: Formatter > Date / Time > Compare Dates

Got it, thank you. 

Turns out my plan doesn’t have the capacity for the amount of steps needed. I know how to do it, in case I upgrade, though. For now - I guess I can integrate Google Calendar (eg. if I create an event for each day) with SMS by Zapier?
