How to pull the year from the Date type?

DaveK — Fri, 13 Mar 2020 12:59:31 GMT

Hello,

I am creating a survey that has a date field which contains a full date (month/day/year) as well as a year field. Is it possible to pull the year out of the Date type field using the Pulldata calculation? or is there another way to format a second Date type field to only show the year?

Thanks.

Hello David,

I think the function your are looking for is the format-date function. You can just format the recorded datetime value to year only.

Details of this function can be found in the Date formatting section of the Formulas page.
