    I assume you get the dates via JS; however, you can modify the date format using PAD.

     

    Once you have the list of dates (%List1%) and assumedly they are recognized as dates, do this:

     

    • Create List %List2%
    • For Each %CurrentItem% in %List1%
      • Convert Date %CurrentItem% to Text; Custom Format; dd-MM-yyyy to %FormattedDate%
      • Add Item %FormattedDate% to %List2%
    • End

     

    This will format each date in your list and add it to a new list once it is formatted.

     

    Best of Luck!
