@Niranjan_k

You can use this

Now.ToString("MMM-dd-yyyy").ToUpper

Toupper is used to get JAN normally you get as Jan

And also this is 2024 and not 2023…If you need last year use Now.AddYears(-1).ToString("MMM-dd-yyyy")

Happy New Year

Cheers

Hi @Niranjan_k

You can use the below expression to get the today’s data in the required format. Save this in a String Variable and you can use that variable in the Type into activity.

- TodayDate = Now.ToString("MMM-dd-yyyy").ToUpper.Trim

Check the below image for better understanding,

If you want to get the date of last year with today’s date, use the below expression

- TodayDate = Now.AddYears(-1).ToString("MMM-dd-yyyy").ToUpper

Check the below image,

Hope it helps!!
