Text to Number conversion

[mayur.shirsat]

I have created an automation that gives me the number of days between the current date and the start date of the Epic. But the output can only be saved in a text field I want to convert it to numeric how can I do it please advise.

Hey @mayur.shirsat welcome to the community!

Since you are using the automation your normally can use the Smart Value functions to convert the text to a number.
