Hello, I am using duckling dimension time for saving dates. My intent looks like below: - intent: inform examples: | - I want to book a meeting on [3 Oct 2021](time) which gets saved in slot time as : [‘3 oct 2021’, ‘2021-10-03T00:00:00.000-07:00’]. Then I am using below function to check if the date is greater than today or not. def validate_time( self, value: Any, dispatcher: CollectingDispatcher, tracker: Tracker, domain: DomainDict, ) -> Dict[Text, Any]: value = tracker.get_slot("time") today = datetime.now() today = pytz.utc.localize(today) if str(value) < str(today): dispatcher.utter_message(text=f"Please select future date.") return{"time" : None} return {"time":value} When I then try to display confirmation message to user that meeting is booked, it comes like this: Your meeting room has been booked on [‘3 oct 2021’, ‘2021-10-03T00:00:00.000-07:00’] for 1pm to 3pm. Why I am getting the date in list format?

Well, just do return {"time": value[0])} then

hey @ChrisRahme , no luck…!! I have entered something like :I need a meeting room on 29sep 2021 and time shows up like this-> time: ['29sep 2021', '2021-09-29T00:00:00.000-07:00'] And when I just enter the time into slot, it shows as time: 2021-10-03T00:00:00.000-07:00 ,which is right.
