How to get the now() time in UTC

Problem:

Please could you let us know how to achieve the function now() to return UTC/GMT time? Currently, it is returning to BST time.

Possible Solution(s):

• now() returns gateway time. If you want that to be UTC set the gateway timezone to UTC in the Operating Environment section of the gateway.
• Try this syntax:

set $(now_in_utc) printDate("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z", now(), "UTC/UTC")
