Today's Date Property

[maulpaurer]

Hello, 

I want to create a "Today's Date" Property, that changes everyday, corresponding to the date of today. 

I found some solutions that were created 3 years ago and don`t work anymore. 
Is there a solution that is working at the moment? 

Thanks in advance!

Hey @maulpaurer,

There's an app called Tick Tock Today that would accomplish this for you! You can select an object type(s) to have the today's date property added to. It will update the property on each record of the type you select daily.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Best,

Hi @maulpaurer,

Which HubSpot subscription's do you have? The only reliable solution, in my opinion, requires Operations Hub Professional.

you can use a workflow with a custom python code

import os
from datetime import datetime
from hubspot import HubSpot
from hubspot.crm.contacts import ApiException

def main(event):
# Get today's date
today = datetime.today().strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S') # Format as ISO 8601 datetime string

# Return data that can be used in later actions
return {
"outputFields": {
"today": today
}
}

# Lambda handler function
def hubspot_handler(event, context):
try:
# Call the main function
result = main(event)
return result
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error invoking main function: {e}")
raise

# Optional: Test the handler locally
if __name__ == "__main__":
event = {
"object": {"objectId": "12345"},
"inputFields": {}
}
context = {}
print(hubspot_handler(event, context))

then make sure to add "today" as an output

you can use this action output and update a custom property or whatever you want.

Python isn't even needed, I just set this up.
