Add Timestamp as a property

It would be beneficial to have Date stamp & Time stamp (system time, eg. YYYY-MM-DD & HH:MM) as available properties in Hubspot. So that one can pick date or time stamps to use in snippets or workflows.

Absolutely agree. I have been trying to figure out how to export a report that shows the time between sign-up and sales contact, and it looks like we're going to have created a convoluted API property. I mean, the time is already measured in the backend... why can't we report on that?

Fully agree, this is useful to track time from a lead status change to the contact. Using last contacted can give the impression this time is very long if multiple contacts are done

This would be a welcome addition and would add a lot of flexibility to workflows and lists.

Must require.

Agreed, every other HubSpot date property has an associated time stamp.

We absolutely need this.  

 

one of the KPI's we'd like to measure is the amount of time that passes from when a new lead comes in - to when the sales rep calls/emails/logs an activity.   This would be tremendous.

I am just getting into this trying to solve this issue, so if it has been solved, I apologize. Does anyone know if this has ever been addressed by HS?

My workaround for this issue has been to write the following sequence in the workflows:

Thanks, E! I will give it a shot.

It would be good when creating a custom property, to be able to select date AND time picker as a value, not just date picker.

Totally agree with this idea!
We need this property so we can use to measure how long has it been since our customer opened a ticket with us!

Agreed.

Agree this is needed, kind of pointless having datetime fields without a datetime picker

Agreed.

We also need this!

This is also something I'd like to measure. Date stamps aren't sufficient as we want to measure time from form submission to first contact, which is often under an hour.

Totally agree about the necessity for time stamps, especially on ticket submissions. For larger CX/service teams, identifying popular ticket submission trends by time of day is critical for determining staffing and schedules in order to enhance the customer experience.

Yes please!!!! This is insane guys. I was looking at past years' data to subtract trial-submission datetime from first time pricing-page viewed datetime, and there's no TIME in the pricing-page property!!!!!

 

I am deeeply dissappointed and mind-blown here!

I WANT THIS SO BAD! My boss is looking for hourly updates for our numbers and I can't currently give that. 😅
