I need a column that shows the current date, so it updates every day, How can I do this?

I have a wf that loops every day and updates the current date column daily but wondering if there is a better way as I need to keep the row where I run it from.

Hi @michuk,

Where is this data stored?
Is it SharePoint Online or somewhere else?
If its SPO you can format the column to show the current date.

    {
      "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
      "elmType": "div",
      "txtContent": "=toLocaleDateString(@now)"
    }
