### Notes created today
```dataview
List FROM "" WHERE file.cday = date("<%tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD")%>") SORT file.ctime asc
```

### Notes last touched today
```dataview
List FROM "" WHERE file.mday = date("<%tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD")%>") SORT file.mtime asc
```

If you're running Obsidian on ChromeOS via Linux virtual machine, you need you replace <% tp.file.creation_date() %> with <% tp.file.last_modified_date("YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm") %> or you'll consistently get 1970-01-01 01:00

I am getting the Parsing error shown below circled in RED after copying the RAW code from the Github page and pasting it into my Daily Note template file located in Extra/Journal/Template, Daily Note file. Can anybody in this forum please clarify to me why this error is being generated? It says "Expected one of the following:" but I do not know what it is referring to. I am using the latest Obsidian/Templater on a Windows 10 PC. Any advice welcome.

### Notes created today
Dataview: Error: 
-- PARSING FAILED --------------------------------------------------

> 1 | List FROM "" WHERE file.cday = date("<%tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD")%>") SORT file.ctime asc
    |                                                     ^

Expected one of the following: 

'(', ')', '*' or '/' or '%', '+' or '-', ',', '.', '>=' or '<=' or '!=' or '=' or '>' or '<', '[', 'and' or 'or'

@1artist use these instead :

List FROM "" WHERE file.cday = date("<%tp.date.now('YYYY-MM-DD')%>") SORT file.ctime asc

List FROM "" WHERE file.mday = date("<%tp.date.now('YYYY-MM-DD')%>") SORT file.mtime asc

Using those lines of code, I don't get an error, but I just get this, even after I make an edit to another note

@Lavender-Daydream Most likely the directory structure of your query is incorrect. Make sure you verify that you use the same structure in your vault as is in the Dataview table. My secret weapon is ChatGPT. You can feed it a table and tell it what to change and it usually spits out a working table.
