Convert Date.now() to the Day of the Week Name

[Damone]

This may have been asked before, but I can’t find a solution. I need to extract the weekday name from the current date. In other words, today is March 8. I need ‘Monday’. Date.now().getDay() returns the number 1.

Try this: Date.now().toLocaleDateString( { ‘format’ : ‘EEEE’ })

That works! I never would have thought of that. (I’m a complete SnapLogic newbie). One more question, do you know of a way to make it all uppercase? Thank you very much!

Date.now().toLocaleDateString( { ‘format’ : ‘EEEE’ } ).toUpperCase()
