Overview

Dashboards provide flexible timezone configurations to ensure your data is displayed in a way that best suits your end users’ needs. By default, dashboards automatically adjust to the local timezone of the end user, contextualizing data for their location.

​
Key Requirements

  • Data Storage in UTC: Ensure all timestamps in your data source are stored in UTC. Upsolve automatically adjusts these timestamps to match the configured timezone.
  • Automatic Adjustment: Date columns will automatically shift to reflect the end user’s local timezone unless otherwise specified.

​
Setting a Specific Timezone

If you need all end users to see data in the same timezone, regardless of their location, you can configure a specific timezone through the dashboard builder settings.

​
Steps to Set a Timezone:

  1. Open the Settings dropdown in the dashboard builder.
  2. Select the desired timezone from the available options.
  3. To revert to displaying data in the end user’s local timezone, select the Local option.
By setting a specific timezone, your dashboard provides a consistent view of time-sensitive data for all users.

Notes

  • Dashboards always assume data is stored in UTC and adjust based on the selected timezone.
  • Switching back to the Local option ensures data reflects the end user’s local timezone automatically.
