I’m using Airtable to track email & social marketing campaigns for multiple sites/lists.

I’m using a formula in the primary field of a Multi-Channel Campaign Tracker that grabs the date from a SendDate column but it is pulling the time as well…the date column is set up with no time.

This is my formula: CONCATENATE(SITE&"-"&Channel&"-"&{Email #}&"-" & SendDate)

And this is what I get: SITE-EM-2-2018-12-28T00:00:00.000Z

How do I not get the time bit appended? Like this: SITE-EM-2-2018-12-28

Thanks in advance…

SITE &
"-" &
Channel &
"-" &
{Email #} &
"-" &
DATETIME_FORMAT(SendDate, 'YYYY-M-D')

And if you prefer a different date format, you have a plethora of options detailed here:
