Get today date in google appScript

Question

How do I get the Today date on google appscript?

I need to write a code to input today´s date in a cell.

function changeDate(){
  var sheet = Spreadsheet         


        

Answer 1

The Date object is used to work with dates and times.

Date objects are created with new Date()

var now = new Date();

now - Current date and time object.

function changeDate() {
    var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName(GA_CONFIG);
    var date = new Date();
    sheet.getRange(5, 2).setValue(date); 
}
