Default values in text input

Dashboard
1

Hi there!

I want to have a default value shown in the text-input (datetimepicker mode). I tried inputting a msg.payload with a numeric value representing miliseconds since epoch but it does not work.

The previous version of node-red-dashboard was able to do it, but I have not found the equivalent functionality for this case.

Any help?
Thanks!

You need to get the format correct.
