I would like to update a date field in a record, with the last time the automation executed. Is this possible in an automation, in the Update Record Action?

If you choose static, you have to enter the field manually. If you choose a dynamic value, you are only allowed to choose from an existing field or data.

Hello @Karl_at_Easy_La ,

Thank you for this, it is excellent and has saved me some time.

A couple of small questions on how to take this further:

1 - I need to do a similar action, where however the time stamp is 2 weeks from the date the action is carried out. Aka, when I trigger the action, I need a date to be set at 2 weeks from today, and remain statically as that date. How could the code by amended for this?

2 - I also need a similar action that only stamps the current year, how could the code by amended for this?

 

Thanks again.
