Delegate Email Template Binding Variables

[HichamElk]

Hi team,

We are setting up the email template for delegates. We have to write one part in french 

Fact is that the binding variables createdate / startdate / enddate shows the date in english format with the UTC format 

Can it be adapted so the date is written in french with Paris timestamp ? 

Thank you

Hi @HichamElk ,

Can you try the below:

${startdate.format("MM-dd-yyyy hh:mm a",TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Paris"))}

${enddate.format("MM-dd-yyyy hh:mm a",TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Paris"))}

@HichamElk  try below insteadOf  delegates.createdate

${delegates.createdate.format("MM-dd-yyyy hh:mm a",TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Paris"))}

[HichamElk]

Ok thank you it works well, 

Result prints like that "05-16-2024 11:33 AM". Is it possible to write the day before the date ? For example : In french, "Jeudi 05-16-2024 à 11:33 AM" ? 

Thank you for your help

@HichamElk  try below

${delegates.createdate.format("EEEE MM-dd-yyyy 'à' hh:mm a", TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Paris"), Locale.FRENCH)}

[HichamElk]

Thank you for your answer,

"Locale.FRENCH" doesn't seem to work, the email is not sent when i add this part.

When i take it off, the email is sent with the day written in english 

Thank you

Thank you Raghu !

Hi

In our case, Delegation mail receiver's could be on global level, there is NO fixed zone.

So can we convert startdate\enddate into local time zone of receiver's mail, instead of specifying exact time zone ?

Thanks you,

You can mention time zone as UTC so end user can convert
