Formatting date placeholders in Aiir Connect

Aiir Connect can be used to produce reconciliation files, which allow your automation system to tell Scheduler which items played as scheduled in your music logs.

When you select your station output while setting up a Scheduler job in Aiir Connect, the correct filename for your automation system should be pre-populated based on your system's filename convention.

If you need to customize this for any reason, you can use the following date placeholders within curly brackets, prefixed by "date:":

Year (four digits) yyyy
Year (last two digits) yy
Month MM
Day dd

For example, WABC{date:yyyyMMdd}.log  would be WABC20251231.log  for the 31st December 2025.

Placeholders are case-sensitive, so while {date:yyMMdd}  would work, {date:YYmmDD}  would not.

Some automation systems' reconciliation file names may pre-fill other information, such as station numbers/IDs required by the system. These will be automatically populated where Aiir knows them. Check with your automation system provider for help with your file name format.
