Datajar variables - eviltoast

I’m trying to do something very simple, and I know I’m not doing it right.

I have datajar installed, and I’m just trying to store the current date in a variable in datajar.

“Set Value”. I can put it in the screen, and set the key path to the key path in datajar. That works.

But for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to set the “Value” to the current date! Every time I click on it (Mac) or press and hold (iOS, iPadOS ) it wants me to pick a file???

Agin…I know this is going to be an easy answer…just can’t get there.

thanks!
