Happy TGI(almost)F...

 

Looking to see how to split the received date into two columns on the excel document. How do I achieve that?

 

I tried the below and it hasn't been working and I'm splitting it manually in excel.

    @geeklarokcmie You need to use and expression and the formatDateTime() function. Use a Compose action to compose the date and time and run a test.

    Click on the dynamic content tab and insert the output from the Convert Time Zone action.

    Add a comma and single quotes. Between the single quotes enter your date format.

    Run a test.

    Use another Compose action to store the time output. Tip: Rename your actions to keep things organized!

    Insert the output from the Compose actions into whatever action you are using (eg. Add Row or Create Row in table)

    You might consider configuring the date format in Excel:
