getDay() get day of week

[Chris_Guthrie]

I’m not great with Scripting, but I can struggle my way through sometimes.

I’m trying to get the day of the week from a Date field type.

Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

Thanks!

^ Typical example of how to use .getDay() in javascript.

So you would be doing something like this:

const dateValue = new Date(record.getCellValue("Date field"))
const days = ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"]
const dayOfWeek = days[dateValue.getDay()]
