Hi there,

You could use a default value in the Single Line Text variable, with javascript:gs.getUserDisplayName(); and javascript:gs.getUser().getTZ();

Hi Rojerio,

Go to the Default value of both the variables.

In the variable you will have the 

For user name 

javascript:gs.getUserDisplayName();

For timezone field:

javascript:gs.getUser().getTZ();

Thanks,
