I want to compare a date from database entry to current date (today). And if it is from today I want to execute the action, thus I use Only when
Now when using recursive workflow and use :each item’s date:formatted as 9/17/25 it does not show me is which is needed to compare to todays date. It only shows me contains or doesn’t contain. If I do it with Todays date it works without problem.
How shall I limit to do the action only when the date set in the database entry is todays date?
That’s because :each item’s deadline is a list of dates not a single date to format. Inside recursive workflows usually you are only handling one thing, one at a time
Also I also format the dates to compare them but you can also do date 1:equals rounded down to:date 2 (round down to day)
I see. I checked Is a list/array and the :each item works for every other field. So I think I know how to handle now: I would call another workflow with :each item and there I handle one by one.
I set up recursive workflow correct now and it works as expected. Use This instead of :each does the trick then.
