    It is possible to parse the date from the Appointment widget by adding a Date Picker field then create a condition to copy the value from the Appointment field to the Date Picker.

    If you want to get the date and the start time, I suggest you use a Short Text field instead and copy the value from the appointment field to your Short Text field using a condition.

    Thank you that helps a lot.

    I would like only to parse the date (mm-dd-YYYY) and time (HH:MM) format from the appointment. Is it possible to do that (mm-dd-yyyy,. 12:30pm)

    Thank you

    You can get the Appointment date in your preferred format by passing the value to a Date Picker field then set the format within your PDF-Editor.

    However, it is not possible to extract the Time alone. Your only option to get the time (along with the date) is using the Short Text field as previously suggested.
