There is no Server type for the date field.

- servers joined (type: Server. Tick “this field is a list.” Doing so will allow you to add multiple servers to this field.)

 ![39](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/bubble/original/3X/3/1/31852d2250ff3f284105d8bba6c6101bd2505e5d.png)  
but could not find the option for - Content = Input Direct Messages Value. I created an Input or Input Message Text element but it does not appear. Not sure what I am missing here.  
Anyone get past this point?
