How to include current date in the HTML of an email notification.

[bwinters]

I have a notification that runs when an event is fired. I am trying to include the current date and time in the body of the email.

you just have to include var gt = new GlideDateTime(); in your notification or email notification script

this did not work. I tried to include in the "Message HTML" of the notification.

You have to cerate a mail script and include that name like below

Time: ${mail_script:script_name}

You can simply use mailscript and use gs.now(); which will give you current date
