### Example: Getting the Full System Timestamp

In this example, we explain how to fetch the complete current system timestamp, including the day, date, and time.

* **Action**: Get Current Day, Date, Time
* **Input Value**: N/A
  * This action does not require any input value. It automatically retrieves the full current timestamp from the system.
* **Output Value**: {Current Timestamp}
  * The retrieved timestamp (Tuesday 15/04/2025 01:23:30) is stored in this **{Current Timestamp}** dynamic variable.
  * If a second output variable is provided, then action returns the status as **True** or **False**:
    * **True**: If the timestamp is successfully retrieved.
    * **False**: If the retrieval fails due to a system error or invalid format.
* **Logical Explanation**: The **Get Current Day, Date, Time** action fetches the complete system timestamp, including the day, date, and time. The result (Tuesday 15/04/2025 01:23:30) is stored in the **{Current Timestamp}** variable.
