I have a below code written in js activity. I need to add 1 hour to the variable currDate. How can I do that? I tried with setHour() and + operator without luck.

vars.currDate = new Date();

logInfo("vars.currDate----------" + vars.currDate);

Hello @rajeshbhat This is how the setHours will work.

var now = new Date();
logInfo("Current Date: "+ now.toISOString());
now.setHours(now.getHours() + 1);
logInfo("New time (1 hour ahead): " + now.toISOString());
