date smart value function ofTheMonth not working inside function

Garrett McCreery

Variables

newDate is set to "2021-04-01"

myNumber is set to "4"

myN is set to "1"

myDay is set to "1"

Here is what is working "plusDays":

{{#newDate.toDate}}func=plusDays({{myNumber}}){{/}}

returns: "2021-04-05T00:00:00.0+0000"

Why can I not do the same with the "ofTheMonth":

{{#newDate.toDate}}func=ofTheMonth({{myN.asNumber}},{{myDay.asNumber}}){{/}}

returns: "2021-04-01T00:00:00.0+0000"

If I log just the inside portion (func=ofTheMonth({{myN.asNumber}},{{myDay.asNumber}})) I get:

func=ofTheMonth(1,1)

Hi @Garrett McCreery

My understanding is that created variables do not work as parameters to functions yet:

What problem are you trying to solve? Knowing that may help the community suggest other ways of getting the result with automation.

Best regards,

created variables has nothing to do with my issue. What I am asking is why some functions like "plusDays" works, but "ofTheMonth" does not in my examples above.

Garrett, would you please post an image of your complete automation rule? That may provide context as you note you are not using created variables and yet you seem to be using variables in the function calls.

If posting the image is not possible, I suggest working with your site admin to submit a defect to customer support for their assistance: https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/

I'm not saying that I am not using created variables, I'm saying that they have nothing to do with my issue...

1. Here is the function "plusDays" being used in a "func" statement and it works fine:

Here is the function "ofTheMonth" where I am trying to use it in a "func" statement and it is not working. You will see that the function does work, it's just not working with a "func" statement.

So back to my original question, why do some functions work with the "func" statement, while others do not?
