Hi Mate,

 

Thanks for sharing the code, but unfortunately it did not work as excepted. It's still giving the result in the below format. "Tue Feb 18 09:55:01 AEDT 2020:INFO:2020-02-18". But I need only the date with "yyyy-MM-dd" format, bcoz I need to send the response based on condition like

1. current date - 7,

2. current date - fortnight,

3. current date - Month,

4. current date - Year,

 

Thanks

Hi senthkum,

nmrao gave you the correct code.

When you use log.info(variablename), that is writing the variable/property to your logging.

So...when you state the value returned in your logging is "Tue Feb 18 09:55:01 AEDT 2020:INFO:2020-02-18", this is correct.

The actual value for the logged variable/property is the value returned AFTER 'INFO:' in the response.

So in this case the value returned when you executed your groovy script is '2020-02-18' which corresponds to 'yyyy-MM-dd' ehich is what you asked for. :)

Cheers,

Rich
