How To: Format Date and Time Together

Show date and time together, including 12-hour, 24-hour, and timezone-aware output.

Use format-date with time patterns when your field stores both date and time.

Problem

You need to display both date and time, potentially in a specific timezone.

Solution

Basic Date and Time:

{{!Opportunity.Created_DateTime__c format-date="MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss a"}}

Result: 10/28/2024 02:30:45 PM

24-Hour Format:

{{!Opportunity.Created_DateTime__c format-date="MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss"}}

Result: 10/28/2024 14:30:45

With Timezone:

{{!Opportunity.Created_DateTime__c format-date="MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss a TZ:America/New_York"}}

Result: 10/28/2024 02:30:45 PM EST
