Hi,

 

I cannot convert Epoch time 1717500804837 to 20241210. I have change the format using @Evaluate(@Value(_created)/1000)

and run DateTimeConverter but it failed

 

Null, empty, or missing datetime was found. Enable the passthrough parameter to disable this

 

What am I doing wrong?

There’s a long-standing bug in the DateTimeConverter, if you select the attribute to be converted via the triangle button it’ll put the literal text @Value(...) instead of referencing the attribute.

If you select the attribute using the [...] button it’ll work.
