sys.date and sys.time email notification

[ILey]

So I setup an email notification and in the body section I wrote this per a tutorial I have been following:

Leak Detector Problem Detected on $(sys.date) at $(sys.time12)

The issue is when the email is received in just says what I wrote in the body, i.e. it does not populate the date and time? Any thoughts on why this is not working?

Also what does the "12" mean in the time? Does it mean use 12 hour clock format? 

 

Thanks for any help.

You need curly brackets { } instead of parenthesis ( ).  

Yes ${sys.time12} is a 12 hour clock with AM and PM.    Check this wiki page for other choices.

Save that for the second or third time you get caught on the same thing.
