It would be great to have a function to get current date and time. Timezone settings could be common for all users and maintained in the settings section
I would like to post an update on, this as I am aware we have not communicated any news on this for a while. We are still planning on implementing a TODAY() type function that will allow the current days date to be returned (with a parameter to specify the timezone). This won't be delivered into production until next year (2022) though. There is a significant amount of complication with this function as it would be the first function whose returned value would change without any other user action. We have chosen to prioritise releasing the Enhanced Calculation Engine (with native support for sparse data sets) before we release the TODAY function next year.
