Hello. I am having an issue where the "Modified" date from SharePoint is wrong in my flow. I know SharePoint sets the time to be that of my timezone so I'm wondering if there's a way to see what the timezone for my Environment is since I assume Flow is basing its time on that.
Is there a way to change the timezone of my Environment? Thank you.
If your timezone is already correct in your profile and in the site settings in SharePoint then please post this as a new question and send me a link. We can try to solve it there.
Thanks!
Now I can see the Gear menu on the 'https://make.powerapps.com/' link. The "language" sends me to my user account preferences, so that was already solved.
The timezone setting in #6 above is for the user. Make sure they are in Power Apps, not the Power Platform Admin center. You should look for the Gear menu in 'https://make.powerapps.com/'. I don't think they can change that setting for you.
Hi,
The SysAdmin People say they can change the Sharepoint Online default timezone used for a specific site in the Site Settings > Regional Settings mentioned on the #2 message above. (which I can't see, but they can).
However, although they see the Power Apps "gear" menu that I can't see as a user, they also can't see the option for the timezone on the Power Apps console "Gear" menu showed on #6 message above.
Can someone help-me please? Could it be that de SysAdminOp needs some additional authorizations from the master SySAdmin for Power Apps Console?
Thanks in advance.
Sorry... My bad... Thanks for answering.
Reading a lot of threads here with similar screenshots for Sharepoint Sites and comments on Power Apps not having a menu to set location, led me to not see what was clearly in front of my eyes on your screenshots. Also, I don't have visibility of the menus for settings, help or notifications on Power Apps:
Guess I have to check with SysAdmin.
Thanks again.
So the timezone in Power Apps is based on my browser? The timezone in my browser is Pacific Time though and my Flow doesn't match that. Does "regional settings for the User in Power Apps" mean its per user? Or is this in the environment?
The Environment I am using is set to Canada and my Share Point site is set to Pacific Time. Is there a way to see the timezone of your environment, flow and Power Apps and how do I change them? Thank you.
In general, yes it is converting the timezone automatically. SharePoint actually stores the date/time in UTC, but displays it on a SharePoint page in the default timezone for the SharePoint server. This can be overridden in the site settings or the regional settings of the user. It evaluates in the order of (SharePoint, site settings, user settings) with the last one found taking precedence.
Power Apps knows that the time in SharePoint is stored in UTC so it will also try to automatically convert it to the regional settings for the User in Power Apps. These settings can also be changed in Power Apps but will normally default to the browser settings.
AS you can see its tricky because there are a lot of different layers that can affect the date/time. Doing a deliberate conversion is usually the only way to get control.
