Your global variable must be an instant
You have to use the correct data types…

In your case to use the method MakeInstant directly with your date string makes more sense… but it must be in the following format:…

An instant in time specified by MM/dd/YYYY hh​ss or MM/dd/YYYY or hh:mm

If you want to use a date string like 2023-04-26, then you first have to convert it accordingly

Just follow the documentation and use the correct format…
