Create a Cal user from a new Zendesk user

Keep customer and scheduling identities ready for coordinated service.

Trigger

New User Created

Triggered when a new user is created in Zendesk.

Action

Create oauth client user

Creates a new managed user for an oauth client, setting profile and scheduling preferences; if `timezone` is not provided, a default schedule (mon-fri, 9am-5pm) is not created, requiring manual setup via `/schedules` endpoint before bookings are possible.

Why this helps

New users need separate scheduling setup before teams can coordinate with them.

  • Reduce duplicate onboarding
  • Prepare scheduling access early
  • Keep identity records aligned

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Zendesk and Cal in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation that creates a managed Cal user from each new Zendesk user and applies the available profile context.
  • 3Pick New User Created as the trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one new user.

Questions about this workflow

What if timezone is missing?

Cal may create the user without a default schedule, so the schedule must be set up separately before bookings.

Does this create a customer booking?

No. It creates the managed Cal user record.
