Hi, if I want to create a date, I should use system.date.getDate. Is there a method that I can put in date & time? Best thing I have thought of is using system.date.add* Hours, Minutes, Seconds, and MIlls to my call of system.date.getDate.
Is there something easier I am missing?
Thanks
What kind of date do you want?
There is also system.date.now() that gets the now with date and time.
Or toDate toDate - Ignition User Manual 8.1 - Ignition Documentation
If you want to keep the same style:
https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/system.date.setTime
or you can use system.date.parse()
and use a string (e.g. '2021-07-06 04:30:28'
)

Oh wow, I saw that in the documentation, and never read it, assuming it was something to use to set system time. Thanks a bunch!
