How to send system date value via confiForms to Jira ticket

[Kanniappan, Hari]

Below is my code

{ "fields":

{ "project":

{"key": "AE"},

"issuetype": {"id": "7"},

"summary": "[entry.workRequestDescription]",

"description": "[entry.additionalInformation]",

"customfield_15164": "[systemDate]", => I need to pass system date in this custom field to jira so that this gets changed everyday when ever my form is submitted. Can you please help with the syntax to pass system date?

Hi @Kanniappan, Hari 

Answered you in the ticket you have opened with us in a private support channel, but will provide the answer here as well, for the wider audience

You can access current system’s timestamp via [entry._now]

To make it readable by Jira you may use a formatDate or jiraDate functions from

https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Virtual+functions

"customfield_15164": "[entry._now.jiraDate]"
