Adobe Campaign Standard: How can we set attribute value to submission datetime on submit of button on LP in ACS?

[SachinDhir]

We tried setting using Additional data but looks like ACS treats values in Addtional data field as text, so can't evaluate GetDate() function.

Additionally, tried luck by setting the value through document controller (the way it can be done in AC classic), but even that is not working.

function setSubmissionDate()
{
var date = new Date();
console.log(date);
document.controller.setValue('/context/profile/OptoutDate', date);
}

Hello @SachinDhir 
If you are preloading the data then create the hidden field and map it to the date field in your schema. Then use the JS to populate the value of this field.

If the data is not preloading, Then save the date as a string in your schema, and in the WF change the data type for manipulation OR create 2 fields in schema one with the date data type and the other string. Then create a separate WF to update values from the string column to the date column.
