Hi,

I am using a date picker and am using the max date formula - formatDate(addDays(date(),1,“YYYY-MM-DD”).

This shows up to today’s date but does not allow me to select it. If I use date(),2, you can select today’s date but tomorrow’s date is not greyed which gives the impression that it can be selected.

[Screen Capture video here](https://screenrec.com/share/7uYVSlLwic)

How do I get the picker to show today’s date as the max that can be selected and allow me to select it.

Thanks  
Steve

This has the same behaviour, todays date is shown as the current value but in the date picker it is not selectable.

sorry maybe I don’t understand, in your image today isn’t the current value of the date picker its just highlighted as a reference. See in the attached image the 22nd is the current value and today has a boarder. If you want to set the current value on load you can set the initial value.

My dates are yyyy-mm-dd so the date shown in the current value “2025-08-07” is correct. And it is highlighted with the border as today’s date on the picker but I cannot select it.

I believe that the behaviour is more date \< today’s date rather than date \<= today’s date.

Got AI to write me javascript which works -

```auto
// Get current date
const today = new Date()
// Set time to end of day (23:59:59.999) to include all of today
today.setHours(23, 59, 59, 999)
// Return ISO string format
return today.toISOString()

```
