Parent Elements

Element Description

Element	Description
TimeZone (Availability)	Contains elements that identify time zone information. This element also contains information about the transition between standard time and daylight saving time. The following are the XPath expressions to this element: `/GetUserAvailabilityResponse/FreeBusyResponseArray/FreeBusyResponse/FreeBusyView/WorkingHours/TimeZone` `/GetUserAvailabilityRequest/TimeZone`

TimeZone (Availability)

Contains elements that identify time zone information. This element also contains information about the transition between standard time and daylight saving time. The following are the XPath expressions to this element:

/GetUserAvailabilityResponse/FreeBusyResponseArray/FreeBusyResponse/FreeBusyView/WorkingHours/TimeZone
/GetUserAvailabilityRequest/TimeZone

Remarks

The StandardTime element represents an offset time that is represented by the Bias (UTC) element. When the child Bias element equals 0, the standard time is equal to the bias offset from UTC that is represented by the Bias (UTC) element.
