Current Date in Email Notification

Sandy7 · ‎05-18-2020

I have an email notification that calls several mail scripts.

I am looking to add the current date to the subject of the email -- so "Notification for - Current Date"

It seems like there should be a way to do this but I can't figure it out. Has anyone done this?

Thanks,

Sandy

Can you try below then,


(function runMailScript(current, template, email, email_action, event) {

var gDateTime=new GlideDateTime();
var gDate = new GlideDateTime().getDate();
var gFormat=gDate.getByFormat('EEEE, MMMM dd');
var gt = (new GlideDateTime()).getLocalTime().getByFormat('hh:mm a');
//gs.print(gt);
//var TFormat=gt.getByFormat('HH:mm');
	var FinalFormat=gFormat+' '+gt;
//gs.print(FinalFormat);
template.print(FinalFormat);


})(current, template, email, email_action, event);

Output as desired.

Hi Jaspal, It is giving the time but can you help such that the time zone should be according to the user's time zone???.

Hi Sandy,

Try this in your email script

var gdt = new GlideDateTime();
email.setSubject("Notification For - "+gdt.getDate());

Regards,

Thank you!! this gives the date - sorry to ask but is there a way to also add the time to this?

I just want the Hour and Minute, not seconds.

Thanks again!
