Duration field in Pipeline Outlook channel

Question

Hi,I am creating a pipeline using the Outlook channel to send an email.  I have a duration field {{a.days}} in the body of the email that is not coming through correctly.  A value of 2 days comes through as 172800000.  Any ideas on how to have it display correctly?Thanks,Deb------------------------------Deb Lanser------------------------------

Do you want to come through as an integer number of days? Or could there be fractional days or minutes and hours?

If you have a duration which is really the time span between two date fields then you could make a numeric formula field in native QuickBase called [# of Days]. The formula would be

ToDays([my duration field])

Then use that field in your email.

That large value you are seeing is the number of milliseconds in two days. 60 * 60* 24 * 2 * 1000 = 172800000.
