Get timestamp from workflow step

Hi,
I need to get (or calculate) timestamp from a workflow step to insert it later on a dataset as a column value. Right now I'm invoking a dataflow with a SQL function but I think that have to be a better way.
Thanks in advance.

There are lots of ways to do this. The most important thing is just to find a way that works and isn't computationally overloading.
In this case I would absolute recommend a code engine function.
Here video on making that exact function:
And here is the code that I review in the video:
———————————————-http://const codeengine = require("codeengine");
function getTimeStamp() {
let timeStamp = Date.now();
console.log(timeStamp);
return timeStamp;
}
module.exports = { getTimeStamp };** Was this post helpful? Click 💡/💖/👍/😊 below. **
