Dynamic date in microflow decision

I am trying to create a dynamic date variable. I am trying to check that a date input earlier in the app falls within a certain month, but it could be of any year. I have attached an image of how I’m currently creating the variable using a parseDateTime function

If I understand correctly, you are interested in just the month part of the date .

In that case, an option would be to extract the month from the date by using the “Get Integer From Datetime” Java action included in Community Commons.

From there you could build the logic stating 1 = January, 2 = February, etc

To add to Ruben's answer:

If you can't select a date from the dropdown, use the “edit” button to select another object, like this:

So you could write $YourEntity/Date or something similar to get the date in question.
