All cloud flows are running an hour behind here in the UK.

If it isnt too much trouble can somebody adjust the clock for daylight savings.

Are we really expected to adjust all our flows twice a year ?

If only there was a way for Microsoft to automate this 🤔

Hi @UK_Mike

Can you elaborate a bit more how are you scheduling the cloud flows.

Are you also using Recurrence?

If you specify a start time with your recurrence, make sure that you select a time zone so that your logic app workflow runs at the specified start time. That way, the UTC time for your logic app also shifts to counter the seasonal time change

Otherwise, if you don't select a time zone, daylight saving time (DST) events might affect when triggers run. For example, the start time shifts one hour forward when DST starts and one hour backward when DST ends. However, some time windows might cause problems when the time shifts.

In theory I should have posted on the PA forums.
Looking around I found this, one of many, just seems a tad stupid to me.

Below is a shot of one of my cloud flows, all have the same logic, all run an hour later than they used to.
Even in PAD the date actions are, well lets say cumbersome at best.
