    "endpoint": "markdown_widget_with_date_picker",
    "gridData": {"w": 16, "h": 6},

    "params": [
        {
            "paramName": "date_picker",
            "description": "Choose a date to display",
            "value": "$currentDate-1d",
            "label": "Select Date",
            "type": "date"
        }
    ]
})
@app.get("/markdown_widget_with_date_picker")
def markdown_widget_with_date_picker(
    date_picker: str = (datetime.now() - timedelta(days=1)).strftime("%Y-%m-%d")
):
    """Returns a markdown widget with date picker parameter"""
    return f"""# Date Picker
Selected date: {date_picker}
"""
