More date formats

Hey guys, could we have a few more options in the Format date action? e.g. ddd mmm yyyy. i.e. combinations that have full names of days and months both in dd mm order and mm dd order. Cheers

    It would be great to have a custom date format option.

    +1 for AdrianM below - just let us input the date format string and add reference to the docs (it's a one-time thing, those don't change). Even without the full names support (localizations can get tricky) this would solve a lot of issues with dates formatting.

    We also want the ability to use 12 hour format. so the AM/PM can be communicated in emails as needed for a given process.

    It would be extremely helpful to have more date and time formatting options in the "Format date to string" workflow action. Examples that would be helpful:
