I guess this is quite simple but couldn’t find it anywhere in the Community or in the User Guide.

I want a date field to be updated with the date three days ahead from today…  
Like Today() + 3Days

Hehehe, how can I write it correctly?

Do you mean creating a formula field, or updating an editable field via an automation?

In general, it’s `Today() + Days(3)`

That’s it, simple like that hehehe.

It was for an automation. It worked.

Thanks =)
