HI @LY_10691079 ,

 

Based on your explanation please add this below piece of code at starting of your service. Also please check the property is Persistant.

 

me.Lastupdates = new Date();

 

 It will log the Date Time value in that property at the time of execution when that service is trigger.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Hi @LY_10691079 ,

 

If you are creating Persist property/properties to store the service execution time, then add that created property in your store service code & assign current date time to find it.

 

For example:

 

///***/// TOP : ASSINGING CURRENT TIME TO FIND SERVICE START ///***///
Things[<<PROPERTY THING NAME>>].ServiceExectionStartTime = new Date();

..............<<<YOUR EXSITING CODE>>>..............

///***/// BOTTOM : ASSINGING CURRENT TIME TO FIND SERVICE END TIME ///***///
Things[<<PROPERTY THING NAME>>].ServiceExectionEndTime = new Date();

 

I hope it clarifies your doubt.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Arun C

Hi @Arun_C ,

 

I have created a property NAME as Lastupdates on the same thing on which this store service is created and given Base Type as Datetime now  according to you I 

should be adding the piece of code which you given above in the store service and in the bottom of store service to check the time right?

 

but how it will store the time in that particular property like I am not sure 

and even I tried this service 

 

 

///***/// TOP : ASSINGING CURRENT TIME TO FIND SERVICE START ///***///
Things[<<PROPERTY THING NAME>>].Lastupdates.StartTime = new Date();

..............<<<YOUR EXSITING CODE>>>..............

///***/// BOTTOM : ASSINGING CURRENT TIME TO FIND SERVICE END TIME ///***///
Things[<<PROPERTY THING NAME>>].Lastupdates.EndTime = new Date();

 

 

executing the service but not able to see the time and data in the property

 

and please be remember I don't want execution time, I want when the services  executed that time and date.

 

Thanks and Regards,

Lav
