VSCode REST client : how to get now date

I am doing some request with rest client extension in VScode I would like to know if there is a way to get the current date and to use it in a request

It would be something like

# CreateLesson
# @name CreateLesson
POST {{baseUrl}}/Lesson/CreateLesson HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer {{authToken}}

{
    "Name": "Maths",
    "DateCreation": {{__now__}},
    "Room": "B23"
    "NbHours": 2,
}
###

Do you know how to do it please?
