Get UTC date and time, day and hours

[vspk]

Hi All,

As part of date and time values to show to user, I need below details in Servicenow:

current utc date and time

current utc day (i.e., monday-sunday)

current utc hour(00 to 23)

Any way to have these 3 values in ServiceNow server side scripting?

Regards,

Venkata

Hi,

you can use getValue() on GlideDateTime() to get value in UTC

https://developer.servicenow.com/dev.do#!/reference/api/orlando/server_legacy/c_GlideDateTimeAPI#r_G...

sample script below for getting UTC values

var gdt = new GlideDateTime();

var time = new GlideTime();

gs.info('UTC time is: ' + gdt);

gs.info('UTC day of week is: ' + gdt.getDayOfWeekUTC());

gs.info('UTC Hours : ' + time.getHourOfDayUTC());

Output:

day of week - 2 meaning it is Tuesday

Week starts with Monday for UTC

Mark ✅ Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
Thanks
