Hello,
we have a usecase here where we would like offer a dashboard based on a Tulip table which references the “current date/time” of when the analysis was last updated. Is this already possible? I could not find any reference in the expression editor or anywhere else.
Example application: show time left from now till the value specified in a date/time column of a tulip table.
Hi @sebme,
The only place in analytics where “Current date/time” is available is in the “Date Range” in the left hand context pane of the analytics editor. I have made the team aware of the desire to have more options here, and there have been some other customers who have suggested the ability to use “now” as a references in an analysis to us as well, so it is on our radar!
If you’d like, I can move this into “product suggestion” category that way others can vote on it as well 
Sure 
One more on the list.
Thank you.
@sebme We’re currently testing an implementation of this. Is the “datetime - NOW” case the only one you are currently interested in or are there others that you would see relevant as well?
Hello Stefan, that sound great. Nothing else I can think of right now - at least in this context 
if this analytic is going in an app not on a dashboard the in app analytic widget can be filtered using calculated variables, which might get you what you need.
@sebme @ktoole Quick update here: Release r288 will include a CURRENTDATEANDTIME() function in the analytics expression editor.
Here is a quick demo with a few examples for how to use it.
This is huge!! THANK YOU!
