Time zone for Fabric capacity

ebjim — Tue, 12 Dec 2023 04:50:54 GMT

Am I correct in saying that all Fabric capacities are set to UTC time and this is a setting that cannot be changed?

I use DateTime.LocalNow() though I am 5 hours behind UTC. Usually, the time difference doesn't matter, but I expect that to change. I also need to account for daylight savings. While there are programmatic ways to handle the time difference, I had to be sure that Fabric presently operates on a single timezone.

Hello ebjim

You are correct at this time Fabric does operate in a single timezone . The offset does provide you with some help , but I understand for DST related calculation we will have implement something custom .

We request you to please log the ask here https://ideas.fabric.microsoft.com/ .

Hi, where exactly can you configure this UTC offset? We are also using Fabric capcity metrics app, but the timezone has been incorrect for us from the start.
