Slack Status Zap Not Updating at Scheduled Time


Hi everyone,

I recently created a Zap to update my Slack status based on this article.

The Zap itself works well, but the status doesn't update at the time I configured in the Zap. I’ve already checked and updated my timezone settings to ensure they’re correct, but the issue persists.

Has anyone experienced something similar or have any suggestions on what I might be missing?

Thanks in advance for your help!
