Set Custom Time

You can use the setTime() method in expressions to manipulate the time portion of a DateTime object while keeping the date unchanged. This is useful when you need to compare datetimes, align time boundaries (e.g., end of day), or create consistent evaluation logic in rules.

📌 Syntax

(datetime).setTime(hour, minute, second)

• datetime – a valid DateTime object (e.g. event.eventDate, member.createdAt, executionContext.processedAt etc.)

• hour – an integer between 0 and 23

• minute – an integer between 0 and 59

• second – an integer between 0 and 59

✅ Example Use Case

Set the point expiry on the same day as when the transaction was placed

(transaction.purchasedAt).setTime(23, 59, 59)

You can create a dynamic configuration for the expiration or pending periods in your campaigns:

🧪 Tip

You can combine it with helper methods like add_days_to_date, add_months_to_date, or add_years_to_date to build more dynamic expressions.
