UTC time issues
Good morning everyone. I’m having a problem with ThingSpeak. I’m sending data from an ESP LoRa with the RTC set to the Brasília time zone (GMT-3).
Previously, when I exported the data to CSV, it used the ThingSpeak time, which appeared 3 hours ahead. Now that I’m sending the timestamp from the ESP, the graphs are showing the data 3 hours behind. Is there a way to align the graph times while keeping the Brazilian time zone?

Time DescendingThe read API has timezone settings in the query string parameters, you should be able to use those to get the timezone you want. There is a timezone and an offset parameter. Dont use both though, they are not compatable.
you can also use the charts API with the offest and timezone parameters to make the charts look how you like. For thingspeak plots, the timezone used is your system time, but there is also a timezone setting in your profile. It says
"Time Zone is used when displaying data in your charts, and when scheduling your ThingSpeak apps."
