Updating a field in a database with today's date

Hi. I'm creating my first connector, and it's going OK. All I want to do is set up Pabbly Connect so that when I add a file to a specific folder in my Google Drive, it updates a specific field for a specific contact in ActiveCampaign with today's date.

So far, I have connected my Google Drive and been able to specify the folder. I then connected Pabbly Date/Time Formatter and selected "Current Date" to output the current date. Finally, I connected ActiveCampaign and selected the correct Contact ID and Field ID to receive the data.

In the "New Value" field, I want it to use the current date output by the Pabbly D/T Formatter. However, when I select "Insert data from previous step", nothing appears, and if I type in "Current date", which is what I would expect the output from the previous step to be called, it says "No results matched 'Current date'".

How do I get PC to use the date from the previous step as the New Value in the final step?
