Hi @Dittau

 

1. Use a formula tool to create a field called "Today" and use DateTimeToday() to create today's date. 

2. In the email tool, check "Use field" and select "Today".

3. Of course, you can also customize the text in the "Today" field.

 

Please see attached:

Hi @Dittau ,

 

You can prepare the email subject field using DateTimeToday function.

Once the data is ready, you may connect it to Email tool and specify the email subject field in the configuration.
