Parse Date / Time from Notification

[Matt]

Hi All,

I'm using the following task to flash some information pulled from a notification via Auto Notification.

Does anyone know how to get around needing the offset of the hour? (I'm in the UK so currently on BST - 1 hour ahead of GMT). The below works but when we go back to GMT the offset won't be needed.

I have seen some posts about Android settings but I've checked those (all set to automatic).

    Task: Glucose Flash

    

    A1: AutoNotification Query [

         Configuration: Notification Apps: xDrip+

         Timeout (Seconds): 20

         Structure Output (JSON, etc): On ]

    

    A2: Parse/Format DateTime [

         Input Type: Milliseconds Since Epoch UTC

         Input: %anwhentime()

         Output Format: HH:mm

         Formatted Variable Names: glucose time

         Output Offset Type: Hours

         Output Offset: 1 ]

    

    A3: Flash [

         Text: %antitle %antext %glucose_time

         Continue Task Immediately: On

         Dismiss On Click: On ]

Input Type: Milliseconds Since Epoch UTC

       

I do not believe there's any reason for you to use the UTC version of the milliseconds since epoch.  There is another option for the input type that is just..

Milliseconds Since Epoch . 

Try using that in the format ,date, time action

Thanks!
