I want to generate a list of dates to pass to a URL for a total of 30 days ending with yesterday's date in the format YYYY-MM-DD. I don't know CTL that well so it probably can be done withing a DataGenerator by starting with today - 1 then keep subtracting 1 day until you have a total of 30 days, but I'm not sure of the syntax. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Hi,
If you would like to receive a list of dates in one record, it has to be set in metadata at first. Set the Type to “date”, Container type to “list” and Format to “yyyy-MM-dd”, please. Then you can use the code below in DataGenerator.function integer generate() {
date[] list1;
for(integer i = 1; i <= 30; ++i) {
list1 = push(list1, dateAdd(today(), -i, day));
}
$out.0.field1 = list1;
return ALL;
}
If you prefer a single record for each date (30 records), put the Normalizer after the DataGenerator and use the code below in it. It will convert multivalue field to multiple records.function integer count() {
return length($in.0.field1);
}
function integer transform(integer idx) {
$out.0.field1 = $in.0.field1[idx];
return OK;
}
I hope this helps.
Regards,
