How to set current date as default date in date picker everytime page loads?

[Anonymous]

Hi,

But my customised Form only has one screen and items are added on sharepoint list and viewed from sharepoint list. 

When trying to view previous requests the datepicker is changing to today's date.

Thanks,

MK

In your case then you'd reference the mode of the SharePoint form:

If(
    SharePointForm1.Mode = FormMode.New,
    Today(),
    Parent.Default)

The mode property of that form will vary depending on whether it's being used to add a new item or to edit an existing one.

how can get timestamp in date picker?

[akmiecik]

Set DefaultDate of Date Picker to:

Now()

That should be 

UpdateContext({currentDate: Today() - 1}); UpdateContext({currentDate: Today()});

not a comma after currentDate:

UpdateContext({currentDate: Today() - 1}); UpdateContext({currentDate, Today()});
