That's a great workaround @ellibot thanks for sharing!

Very cool, @ellibot! Trouble for me is I don't have access to Workflows in my instance. Hopefully @Matt Tannyhill will have good news for us soon on a native solution within the core product soon! 🙏

When using a date variable, a new default value 'Today's Date' should be an option. It should take the date of the current timezone of your instance.
This seemingly simple update would be powerful for my team. Right now, any dashboard using a variable is then not able to be turned into a scheduled report because the date variable would always need to be updated before the report goes out.
Bonus: Allow for a calculation like subdate(currentdate(),interval 1 day) to set the default to yesterday.

This feature would be very helpful

Specifically, having the ability to set the default value of a variable to a dynamic value such as current_date(), instead of having to choose one static date.

Bump.
Are we still waiting on this? How many other requests have over a hundred up votes? I concur with @Jones01, not just default to current date, but to a beast mode formula would be ideal.** Was this post helpful? Click Agree or Like below. **

@ellibot , Can you share the code which updates the date variable either here or in the Domo community instance?
I was able to follow your video till the part where we are able to see the variable "expression" value.
I cannot replicate on how you actually went and updated that value in your code.
I believe it'll be helpful for everyone if you share your code till Domo makes the update on allowing us to set dynamic default date.
Thanks in advance,
Bharath.
