How "Recurrence" handle daylight saving?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by hongkong 277

 

I want to setup a flow to run recursively on every Thursday 13:00 at London Time. London time, as for today, is running UTC+1. 

But in the screenshot below, the Time Zone I can pick today is (UTC +00:00) for London.

So when should I expect the flow trigger at summer and winter? How to make it work correctly beside manually change it twice per year?

    I don't like the Scheduler/Recurrence interface because I think it is unclear when it comes to time and timezone.

     

    However, I know if you select a Timezone in Power Automate, it automatically adjusts for daylight savings time. You can test it in another flow by putting in a Current Time action followed by a Convert Time Zone action and convert from UTC to your local time. The output will be in the daylight savings time +1 and not the standard +0.

     

    I would expect your schedule to be adjusted for daylight savings.
