Vapi sends wrong date and time (sends date and time from the past) to webhook in make

Hey so I have had a hard time getting my scenario to work where if for example someone wants to book a table for tomorrow (15/07-2025) vapi sends the date (2023-10-07) to the make webhook. I have tried with a prompt in vapi from the youtube video of Looski “Vapi Doesn’t Know What date it is-Solved” but it still sent the wrong date and time? Has anyone else had this problem?

Hey TopG44,

Thanks for reaching out! We're currently swamped with a bunch of tickets and it's taking us longer than usual to get back to everyone. I know waiting isn't fun, but we want to make sure we give your issue the attention it deserves rather than rushing through it.

We'll circle back with you soon to get this sorted out.

Please insert this code snippet anywhere into your assistant prompt to provide correct date and times. Modify the timezone as needed:

The current date and time is {{"now" | date: "%A, %B %d, %Y, %I:%M %p", "America/Los_Angeles"}}

The current date and time is {{"now" | date: "%A, %B %d, %Y, %I:%M %p", "America/Los_Angeles"}}

More information on this can be found on the documentation: https://docs.vapi.ai/assistants/dynamic-variables#advanced-date-and-time-usage
