How to get the computer time and show in report

Is there a way that I can create a measure which retrieves my computer's date and time then show it in my report?

1 ACCEPTED SOLUTION

Hi @s15,

 

Could  you please vote this idea: add-a-clock-showing-current-time-of-specified-time. Maybe we can get it someday.

 

I found a workaround. But we can use it in a dashboard only. Maybe you could try it.

1. I found a free web content by Google with key words "clock code".

2. Open a dashboard, "add a tile", select "Web content", then "Next".How to get the computer time and show in report.jpg

Hi @s15,

 

You can use NOW() - which will result in DATETIME 

or if you only looking for date you can use TODAY() - which will result in DATE 

 

Hope this helps

@sumit4732 and @fhill Thank you very much.

 

Just more to ask if you don't mind. How can I get real-time time? Saying the second is changing constantly.
