Hello Pratik -

I’ve tried and it works. If my date is in MM/dd/yyyy ex. 07/06/2020

But in this case, like “May 20, 2020” - it doesn’t work :frowning:

Hi @prititit

So you are saying it is not identifying below date :-
“May 20, 2020”
??

Can the share the SS same as below for your activity

Hi Pratik,

What if I have to get like yesterday’s date. Usually I use this if there is a data for yesterday’s date. That’s why im using the “now.AddDays(-1).ToString(“mmmm/dd/yyyy”)”

:slight_smile:

Hi @prititit

By the below way you can get your format :-

todaysDate.ToString(“MMMM”)+" “+todaysDate.ToString(“dd”)+”, "+todaysDate.ToString(“yyyy”)

And below will give you yesterday’s day in your format :-

todaysDate.ToString(“MMMM”)+" “+todaysDate.AddDays(-1).ToString(“dd”)+”, "+todaysDate.ToString(“yyyy”)

Below is the workflow for the same
Main.xaml (8.1 KB)

So as per this you can pass the variable by storing the date format you want or you can directly pass the format as you are doing already in the filter datatable activity

Hope this would solve your query :slight_smile:
