CURRENT_TIMESTAMP function

The CURRENT_TIMESTAMP datetime function returns the current date and local time.

Syntax

CURRENT_TIMESTAMP returns a TIMESTAMP value representing the current date and local time. As with all SQL functions that take no parameters, no parentheses are required or accepted. All calls to CURRENT_TIMESTAMP within the processing of one node are guaranteed to return the same value.
