Is Weekend
Checks whether a date falls on a Saturday or a Sunday.
Is Weekend tells you whether a date is a Saturday or a Sunday. Use it with a Decisional action to route weekend requests differently, for example to skip a reminder or send it to an on-call team.

In the Process Designer toolbox, open DateTime and pick Is Weekend (or type Is Weekend in the search box).

Good to know
- The weekend is always Saturday and Sunday. Public holidays are not taken into account.
- An empty Date stops the step with the error
Please provide a non-empty date as input. - Time zone: a date that carries a UTC offset (for example
2024-03-01T00:30:00+02:00) is first converted to UTC, and the result is read from the UTC value. A date without an offset, or ending inZ, is used as it is.
