How do I pass a UTC timestamp via URL Parameter in Workshop?

Hi Vincent, like you mentioned timestamps passed by URL parameters are interpreted in the specified timezone if the timezone is included in the passed timestamp string, or default to user’s local timezone if timezone is not specified in the timestamp.

To parse timestamp strings without timezone as in UTC timezone, you can:

  • switch the URL parameter variable to be a string variable
  • use variable transform’s “cast” operation, it allows you to specify a static timezone that the timestamp string should be interpreted in
