API timezones
The default timezone for members is EST5EDT (U.S. Eastern Time -4/-5 UTC depending on daylight savings). Advertisers take on their member's timezone by default.
Reporting currently defaults to Eastern Time except for Network Billing, which is in UTC, but you can manually choose the timezone on any report.
Warning
Non-integer timezones are not supported
Non-integer timezones are not supported by our system. This applies everywhere timezones are used, including reporting. Unsupported timezones include:
- America/Caracas
- America/St_Johns
- Asia/Tehran
- Asia/Kabul
- Asia/Kolkata
- Asia/Katmandu
- Indian/Cocos
- Australia/Adelaide
Member service
If the parent member's timezone is changed through the Member Service, the child object timezones do not change. You cannot make a member's timezone "trickle down" after a change. You would have to change your existing advertiser timezones through the Advertiser Service.
Advertiser service
If an advertiser is created without a timezone, it will take on the timezone of its member parent.
When you change an advertiser's timezone, you can choose whether or not to make the change "trickle down" to child objects (campaigns, line items, and creatives). See the Advertiser Service page for details.
Where else can you set timezones?
