Adding the number in the smart value to the date

[Ömer - OBSS]

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble adding the number I received with a web request over the date. These are the steps I try;

1. Some trigger

2. Send Web Request

3. Creating Variable

I am getting some numeric value from web request then creating a variable with that number;


4. Update Due Date with adding this number onto the now.

When I logged the value I extracted in the third step, I can see correct number;

These are my all steps. When i try last step with a constant number everything's ok but when i try to use a smart value due date is updated with an empty value. Probably I'm making something wrong on last step but I can't figure out how can i fix this.

Thanks,
Ömer

Hi @Ömer - OBSS 

At this time, created variables are always text type.  Please try including asNumber when you use the variable:

{{now.plusDays(averageInProgressInDays.asNumber)}}

Kind regards,
