Countdown Timer on Date

[sethiamehul14]

Hey,

I have built a counter in a project by following this tutorial - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWb3xZG_YSI

The calculations are already split for days, hours, minutes and seconds. I am running this on an RG, so each cell has its own counter. I am not able to stop the counter at 0 and its going to negative numbers. For the conditionals that i have tried, the change reflects only on page load, but in realtime it goes to negative numbers. How do i stop at at 0?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @sethiamehul14!
Here are some plugins to do (maybe) what you need.

better to use a plugin to achieve this - otherwise wu cost will be quite high (do thing every 1 second…)

Is there a way to check how many units are being used each day?

The workflow doesn’t interact with the DB, so I’m not sure if it will affect the costing.

There’ are no WU costs involved here, and no need to use a plugin….

Your expression is referencing the current data/time, which is a static Date object.

You need reference the live date/time (updated every second) - then the condition should work correctly.
