timezone of PS

Question

Hi All

When i connect exchange online powershell what timezone will it take. I am connecting exchange online powershell from one of my server, the server timezone is in PDT. will powershell take PDT or UTC time.

Answer 1

All times are stored as UTC. They're converted to local time based on the time zone of the local machine.

In PowerShell, the creation of a DateTime object, by default, converts the time to local time unless you explicitly ask for UTC. If you write a DateTime object to a file, the time is NOT converted to UTC. That's something you must do unless the DateTime object's already in UTC.

You can use the "Kind" property of the DateTime object to discover if its UTC or Local.
