=== Upgrading for Users
+==== Date manipulation functions
+
+Date manipulations in Gremlin queries were only possible using closures, which
may or may not be supported by
+different providers. In 3.7.1, we introduce the `asDate()`, `dateAdd` and
`dateDiff` steps aimed to replace the usage of closure.
+
+The following example demonstrates usage of newly introduced steps:

+gremlin> g.inject("2023-08-02T00:00:00Z").asDate().dateAdd(DT.day,
7).dateDiff(datetime("2023-08-02T00:00:00Z"))

> Add List Manipulation Steps to Gremlin
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: TINKERPOP-2978
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2978
> Project: TinkerPop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: language
> Reporter: Cole Greer
> Priority: Major
>
> Today Gremlin requires that users fall back to closures to handle many common
> list manipulation options that users want to do on data in the graph. This
> is a problem for many users as many of the providers prevent the use of
> closures due to the security risks so for these users there is no way to
> manipulate lists directly.
> A full list of proposed functions and semantics is detailed here:
