Specifies the timezone of the Jira instance to use datetime filters effectively and retrieve results based on the specified timezone.

Syntax

Connect-JIRA -Timezone string

Data Type

cstr

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property ensures that all date and time-related operations are performed according to the correct timezone, helping to align data with the user's local time. An example of an IANA timezone Id is 'America/New_York'.

You can find the timezone of your Jira Cloud by navigating to Settings > System > General configuration > Default user time zone. Setting the correct timezone ensures that any datetime filters used in queries or reports are aligned with the desired time zone, preventing errors caused by time discrepancies. If this property is left unset, the default timezone is applied, and datetime filters might not be adjusted to your local time zone.
