I want to convert Date & Time into CST, GMT, SGT, EST, IST timezone.
I have date columns and also created Refresh date time which should change by clikcing on Timezone.
Solved! Go to Solution.
You can use DateTimeZone.SwitchZone function, for example
DateTime.LocalNow() leads to curent date and time at your location but the next fromula convert it to GMT (UTC+0)
DateTimeZone.SwitchZone(DateTimeZone.LocalNow(), 0)
Example for CST (UTC-6):
DateTimeZone.SwitchZone(DateTimeZone.LocalNow(), -6)
Example for SGT (UTC+8):
DateTimeZone.SwitchZone(DateTimeZone.LocalNow(), 😎
Example for EST (UTC-5):
DateTimeZone.SwitchZone(DateTimeZone.LocalNow(), -5)
Example for IST (UTC+5:30):
DateTimeZone.SwitchZone(DateTimeZone.LocalNow(), 5.5)
