Question & Answer

I didn’t see any documentation for API. Is this supported?

Hi @tlm234,

You can set the time zone when you use the API to create an analysis.

Thanks. I used those fields with create analysis API (Javascript) but that doesn’t seem to do anything. Those options are missing when I describe the same analysis. Did this work for you?

Definition.Options = { Timezone: ‘Australia/Melbourne’}

You won’t see the option in DescribeAnalysis. You have to use DescribeAnalysisDefinition instead.

It works for me.

Thanks for looking into this.
But oddly, the time zone just wouldn’t stick for my payload below. Analysis is created successfully minus timezone. This feature isn’t beta/preview right?

What if you use UpdateAnalysisDefinition to update the time zone after creating the analysis? Does that work?

It works for me both with CreateAnalysis and UpdateAnalysisDefinition.

Hi @tlm234,
It’s been awhile since we last heard from you, was David’s last suggestion helpful for your case or do you have any additional questions?
If we do not hear back within the next 3 business days, I’ll go ahead and close out this topic.

Thank you!
