How to get logged in users time zone in scoped app?

[Priya Shekar]

Hi All,

We used to get logged in users time zone by "gs.getUser().getTZ();"

But in scoped app, we get "Evaluator: org.mozilla.javascript.EcmaError: undefined is not a function." error while using the above code.

Is there any alternative for getTZ()?

Thanks,

Priya

I don't about scoped app, but below code you can try to get a logged in user timeZone if above code you mentioned does not work.

var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user');

gr.get(gs.getUserID());

var timeZone = gr.time_zone; // variable timeZone will store the user time zone value, you can use it further for scripting.

I did run it in scripts background and it printed the correct time zone for the user.

It wont print time zone if that is the system time zone

Else it worked

var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user');

gr.get(gs.getUserID());

gs.print(gr.time_zone);

Hello , priyadarshini! try these:

var gr = gs.nowDateTime(); // date and time

or

var gr = gs.now() // Just time
