Description

The AddDateTimeVariable method adds a datetime variable with the specified name and initial value to the built-in collection. The variable will be available in expressions under the provided name and will initially hold the specified datetime value.

Built-in datetime variables can be used to provide predefined date/time values like current date, system timestamps, or reference dates that expressions can access and use in date/time calculations.
