Date/Time Now Tool

The Date/Time Now Tool returns the current date and time in ISO 8601 format.
It is useful for workflows that require a timestamp or need to know the current time.

Inputs

• city ¹ (string): Name of the city to fetch the time for (e.g., "New York").
• requireToolUse (boolean, user config): Require tool use (forces the LLM to always call this tool; default: true)

  Note: When enabled, the node will retry tool calls up to the number of times set in Max Tool Retries in the AI Data Processing Node.
