    Please post a screenshot where you applied the expression. I did test the expression in my test flow.

    Thanks for trying but that didn't fix the problem

    the auto email sent to me still has the long winded date

    IT IS DUE BEFORE 2023-11-20T00:00:00.000Z

    Try the expression

     

    formatDateTime(utcNow(), 'dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy')

     

    replace utcNow(), with your reminder date.
