# TODAY

### Description

`TODAY` returns the current date in [ISO8601 format](https://docs.atfinity.io/rule-language/operators/date-operators). If you also need the current time, use [`NOW`](https://docs.atfinity.io/rule-language/operators/date-operators/now).

### Example

```
TODAY()
```

This would return a text representing the current date and time in ISO8601 format, which means `YYYY-MM-DD`.
