I had an idea that I could upload website [timeanddate.com](http://timeanddate.com) and hit it daily. This did not work. Maybe this could be a request for a feature to have some things like this from the pickaxe be available and told to the chat.

Anyone other ideas?

@landed I’m not sure I understand the question.

Do you want to retrieve the time and date?

You will need to create a custom action with [Make.com](http://Make.com)

(you can check the how-to guide)
