Get Current Local Datetime

Return the current date and time in a chosen time zone.

Setup and use

Run manually with an IANA time zone such as America/New_York. In n8n, set the time zone in Get Local Datetime before running.

Behavior

The workflow returns the current UTC instant as an ISO string, local year, zero-indexed month, day, hour, minute, second, millisecond, and a formatted local date with UTC offset. Daylight saving time follows the runtime’s time-zone data. An invalid time zone stops the run.

Inspiration & credits

Changes to the source

Replace the environment-specific time zone with a configurable time zone and use the runtime’s international date formatting instead of requiring Moment.
