Set current date/time when creating Items

This will set the current date or date-time when Content Items or List Items which such a field are created. This will also add the current date or date-time to Content Items when a Layer with such a field is added. 

Format

The default format is DD-MMM-YYYY HH:mm:ss.
The format preview is: 27-Dec-2019 22:37:34

D stands for the day, M for the month, Y for the year. H stands for the hour, m for the minute, and s for the second. The number of those characters decides if, e.g., the day shows as 1, Mon, Monday. Sometimes two characters are possible, sometimes not. You can check the underlying JSON Schema definition, or you can play around with the preview directly displayed in the Content Platform: 

The format setting supports the JSON Schema Date Pattern, e.g., MM/DD/YYYY or DD-MM-YYYY hh:mm:ss. 

Required

UI required

Sortable

Sort items based on the date entered to find the newest or oldest.

Include in filters

Adding Dates or DateTime as a filter would show each single data entry. Therefore dates should be aggregated into periods (ranges), e.g., this week, this month, this year.

Include in search

The simple search in the content browser cannot find dates. In such a case, we recommend adding a channel filter.
