How to convert 12 hour time to 24 hour time?

How to convert CST to EST. I am converting as below,
gmt(local(now(),"EST")). Time is changing fine, but the timezone is not changing. Still its displaying CST instead of EST.

Thanks in advance.

Appian defaults to showing you the time in the timezone set by your local calendar/timezone settings. So when you run gmt(local(now(), "EST")) it should be changing the time value correctly but still displaying "CST" on the end. To correct for this, you may have to manually display the timezone, to do so you can use the text() function to display just the date and time and then concatenate "EST" to the end of the string.
