Set date in bootstrap datetimepicker input

The correct syntax is :

$('#datetimepicker2').datetimepicker({
    date: new Date(1434544882775)
});

You want to set a default date value :

var d = $('#datetimepicker1').datetimepicker({
    "defaultDate":new Date()
});

quote from http://eonasdan.github.io/bootstrap-datetimepicker/Functions/

Note All functions are accessed via the data attribute e.g. $('#datetimepicker').data("DateTimePicker").FUNCTION()

So you can update date like following:

$('#datetimepicker2').data("DateTimePicker").date(new Date());

Had to add, I was able to solve it.

$('#datetimepicker1').datetimepicker({});
$('#datetimepicker1').data("DateTimePicker").date(moment(new Date ).format('DD/MM/YYYY HH:mm'));
