Post PatronSubscription sent at wrong time but timezone correct
I've got a scheduled refresh thats set to update data everynight at 10pm MST...but I got the reports sent to me a 6:00pm last night.
I have the scheduled refresh set at 10pm MST...so I'm not sure where else I can change this
Thanks!

Currently, you will only get emails when the data changes when subscribe a report. So when setting schedule refresh for this report dataset, please select your local timezone, so that you data will refresh on proper time. And you can get the email on a proper time.
For the issue

In Power BI services, your local will convert to UTC time. Currently, there is not such a option to change this time to your local time. You can add a local time to your report, please refer to the link below to see how to do it.

I get it but I don't.
When viewing reports in Power BI I'm using NOW() function. This displays my local timezone (MST) in the desktop application.
When I'm in the Web Service it will display the timezones as UTC.Thats fine, so I can create a new column in called NOW(-6) to get to MST, no? But when I'm looking at the report in desktop I'll get the wrong time as I'll put -6 from the local...but in the online it will show correct.
So I have to do right for one, wrong for the other?
Let me know
