How do you find current date and time in Oracle?

by

The SYSDATE() function is used in Oracle to find the current date and time of operating system on which the database is running.

SELECT TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, ‘MM-DD-YYYY HH24:MI:SS’) “Current_Date” FROM DUAL;

In Oracle, you can find the current date and time using the SYSDATE function. Here’s an example:

SELECT SYSDATE FROM DUAL;

This query selects the current date and time from the DUAL table, which is a dummy table often used for such purposes.

Alternatively, you can use the CURRENT_TIMESTAMP function:

SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP FROM DUAL;

Both of these queries will return the current date and time in the default format for your Oracle database.
