Find a new user's local time zone
Plan support follow ups around the user's likely local hours.
Trigger
New User Created
Triggered when a new user is created in Zendesk.
Action
Time Zone by IP Address API
Tool to retrieve time zone information for a given ip address. use when you need dst status, utc offsets, and local/utc time for a specific ip.
Why this helps
Teams schedule callbacks blindly when users do not state their location.
- Improves callback timing
- Adds UTC offset context
- Reduces unnecessary time zone questions
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Zendesk and Big data cloud in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named New user IP timezone.
- 3Tell Notis to extract the user's IP, call Time Zone by IP Address, and summarize local time and daylight saving status.
- 4Pick New User Created as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one new user record containing an IP.
Questions about this workflow
Is the result always the user's exact location?
No. It is timezone information inferred from the supplied IP.
What if no IP is available?
Notis reports that the timezone lookup needs an IP.
