{{attendanceresult.basofa_logout | date:" hh:mm" | date: '+05:30'}}

{{ attendanceresult.basofa_logout | in_time_zone: "IST" | date: "hh:mm" }}

Not sure what's going on, I replied to this post and then it disappeared.

I don't believe there is a timezone setting, but you can add days, hours etc to a date field in liquid see the date filters https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-pages/configure/liquid/liquid-filters#date-filters

I had the same question a few weeks ago, and from my research, it seems that Liquid doesn't have functionality for that. The only option I found is using the "add hours" filter, if that works for your needs.

{{ now | date_add_hours: 1 }}

Hi,

We understand that you are looking to retrieve the Created On field in IST format within a Power Pages webpage.
Currently, Liquid can retrieve the date value, but it cannot directly fetch the formatted value. You can refer to the screenshot below for further clarification.

However, you can still achieve this by either:

Utilizing Liquid's date functions to adjust the time by adding the required hours for IST.

Leveraging the Power Pages Web API to retrieve the formatted values in IST directly.

Hope this helps.

Thanks!

Hi

You could try using a Jscript

function convertToLocalTime(utcDate, timeZone) {
// Convert the UTC date to a Date object
const date = new Date(utcDate);

// Convert the UTC date to the local time of the specified time zone
const localDateTime = date.toLocaleString("en-US", {
timeZone: timeZone,
year: 'numeric',
month: '2-digit',
day: '2-digit',
hour: '2-digit',
minute: '2-digit',
second: '2-digit',
hour12: false // 24-hour format
});

return localDateTime;
}

// Get the current date in UTC format
const utcDate = new Date().toISOString(); // Today's date in UTC
const timeZone = "Asia/Kolkata"; // Indian Standard Time (IST) timezone
const localDateTime = convertToLocalTime(utcDate, timeZone);

console.log("UTC Date:", utcDate);
console.log("Local Date Time:", localDateTime);

Above replace the utcDate with your date.

Thanks
