How to identify odd or even days

How to create an automation that performs a specific task when it is an odd or even day in the month.

Hey @Soluciones TIC - 

What I would do in this case is create a rule that triggers every day, and within that rule, you can use a combination of Math and Date/Time Smart Values functions to figure out whether the day is odd or even.

To test this, I used an If-Else condition block that contains:

• Advanced compare condition 
  I get today's date ({{now}}) for my time zone (.convertToTimeZone), and then use the modulo (%) operator within a math expression ({{#=}}) to see if it is evenly divisible by 2.

If that value equals zero, then today's day is even. Else it is odd.

The end result looks like this. You would of course replace the audit log actions with the tasks you'd like to run.

Please let me know if this ends up working for you!
