Hi!
I am trying to return a datetime object using a function. However the debugging tool tells me I return the wrong format. After searching for what causes the error I believe it might be something with the Date vs Datetime in JavaScript. Has anyone encountered this problem? If so how can I solve it?
Thank you!
In Appfarm functions, you can only return primitive types, such as: string, boolean, number, etc.
and here, you are returning a Date object. Maybe you want to return a string formatted as a date instead?
Ok, I see!
My wish is to set a datetime field of an object using the Create Object action node. I guess I’ll have to find a work around using the value processor maybe.
Appfarm’s date property is an ISO formatted date string. You will get the correct format by doing a .toJSON() on a date object.
In your case: return startDate.toJSON()
This error message is now documented (and searchable) in our docs.
