Custom date format with language

I am using this smart value to enter a comment the month before the current one with a specific format, but I require it in Spanish "Enero" and not "January".
Is that possible?

Hello. I share the solution found thanks to Atlassian’s support.

{{now.minusMonths(1).locale("es").format("MMMM yyyy")}}

Thanks for that information!  You may want to suggest to the support team to add that function to the automation documentation for date/time functions:

Hi @Soluciones TIC 

I do not believe that is supported with the built-in date/time handling.  And I did a quick test to see if automation's format() function could handle the locale parameter with Local.getDefault() and that returned null.

Checking the public Jira and Automation backlogs, I could not find an open suggestion or defect for this, so I recommend you submit a ticket to Atlassian support to see what they suggest.  You appear to be the site admin for a paid Jira license, and so can submit the ticket here: https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/

Please post what you learn from them in this thread so others can benefit from the information.

Kind regards,
Bill
