How can we convert custom timezone to normal(IANA) format timezone in getSchedule Api ?

Question

While fetching events using graph getSchedule Api , we are getting events along with timezone. Sometimes timezone is custom timezone. How can we get actual offset timezone from custom timezone?

Hi @phenom-test-one

You can add the Prefer: outlook.timezone header to the request to specify the time zone for the event start and end times in the response.

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/events/{event id}  
Prefer: outlook.timezone="Pacific Standard Time"  

In general, the timeZone property can be set to any of the time zones currently supported by Windows, as well as the additional time zones supported by the calendar API.
