Hi @anmita

Please take a look at this approach:

Create a variable, e.g., CurrentISTTime, of type DateTime.
Assign CurrentISTTime = DateTime.Now.AddHours(5).AddMinutes(30)

Condition: CurrentISTTime.Hour >= 14 AndAlso CurrentISTTime.Hour < 18
 Message Box activity inside this branch: "Afternoon"

Else If activity:
Condition: CurrentISTTime.Hour >= 22 OrElse CurrentISTTime.Hour < 2
Message Box activity inside this branch: "Night"

Hope this helps,
Best Regards.

Hi @anmita

Assign Activity:
Left Side: utcNow (DateTime)
Right Side: DateTime.UtcNow

Assign Activity:
Left Side: istTime (DateTime)
Right Side: utcNow.AddHours(5.5)

If Activity (Condition: istTime.Hour >= 14 AndAlso istTime.Hour < 18)
    Then:
    - Log Message Activity: "Afternoon"
Else If Activity (Condition: istTime.Hour >= 22 OrElse istTime.Hour < 2)
    Then:
    - Log Message Activity: "Night"

@anmita

you can use this in log message

If(Now.Hour<18 And Now.Hour>=14,"Afternoon",If(Now.Hour=<23 And Now.Hour>=22,"Night","Other parts of day"))

Hello

Actually the System Time is not set in IST(It could be Mexico Time, Etc)

Then how we can get the Time in IST

Hi @anmita

  1. Get Current IST Time:
    => Assign → currentUtcTime = DateTime.UtcNow
    => Assign → istTime = currentUtcTime.AddHours(5).AddMinutes(30)

  2. Else If activity

- Condition: istTime.TimeOfDay >= New TimeSpan(14, 0, 0) AndAlso istTime.TimeOfDay < New TimeSpan(18, 0, 0)

Then block:
=> Assign → timePeriod = “Afternoon”

- Condition: (istTime.TimeOfDay >= New TimeSpan(22, 0, 0) AndAlso istTime.TimeOfDay <= New TimeSpan(23, 59, 59)) ||
                   (istTime.TimeOfDay >= New TimeSpan(0, 0, 0) AndAlso istTime.TimeOfDay < New TimeSpan(0, 0, 0))

Then block:
=> Assign → timePeriod = “Night”
3. Message: "The current time period is " + timePeriod

Hope it helps!!
