Current date and time in UTC
Returns the current date and time (DateTime
value) in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
Sample usage
(NOW() - UTCNOW())
returns a Duration
value giving the difference between UTC and local time.
Syntax
UTCNOW()
Notes
For client-side interactions, the accuracy of the UTC time returned depends on the accuracy of the system time and timezone offset of the user's device (which can be modified by the user). To capture UTC timestamps that can't be modified by user-controlled settings, use a server-side interaction, such as an automation.
