# Populate With Date [#](https://gudhub.com/docs/automation-nodes/populate-with-date/#populate-with-date)

**Populate with date** - a node that allows you to fill any field with a specific date. This is useful, for example, if you need to record the date when any data was updated.

> This node can fill any field regardless of its data type.
