Examples

Parser expression

Description

Bash
%{datePart({issue.created},RUN_AS_LOCAL)}

This example returns the issue's creation date, e.g. March 25th, 2020 00:00 as a number in milliseconds.

If the creation date was March 25th, 2020 23:15 the output would be March 25th, 2020 00:00 (in milliseconds).

The time part 23:15 will be removed from the timestamp and will be set to 00:00.
