Hello,

Is it possible to set User Timezone with SAML assertion, For example we can set User manager, Office Phone or Custom Fields.

Similarly, I need to setup Time Zone automatically without them to set it up manually from User Profile settings

I suggest to contact Appian to discuss this requirement.

Hi,

Maybe, you find the update User Profile smart service helpful.

Appian does not have a built-in feature to set the user timezone directly from SAML assertion information.
Workarounds for Automatic Timezone Setup:
- Utilize custom fields and expressions.
- Implement server-side logic.
- Integrate with external services.
Refer to the documentation below for implementing the workarounds.
