If we understood you correctly, you want use getdate() funtion in Skyvia Query Tool when quering data from your Salesforce Marketing Cloud instance. Correct?

Please try using this solution:

SELECT t.Name

  FROM Account AS t

  where t.CreatedDate <  date('now')

 

Please notify us about the results.

 

Best regards,

Mariia

Please specify where exactly you are trying to execute your SQL query?

Skyvia Query Tool uses its own SQL syntax for query execution (it is based on SQLite) and, thus, you should use date() function instead of the getdate() one. Please refer to: https://skyvia.com/resources/docs/index.html?select.htm
