    Article Summary

    The first time you log into ControlUp Insights you are prompted to select your time zone. The time zone you select remains is applied to your user account by default, unless you manually change it, as explained below.

    Note

    Changing your time zone only affects the display you see when you are logged into ControlUp. Scheduled actions, like periodic data collection, continue to occur at the times they were previously scheduled to. In addition, if you export data to CSV files, the times always appear in UTC.

    4. From the dropdown list, select the new time zone.

    5. Select Save. The selected time zone is implemented.

    Note
    Implementation might not be immediate, because Insights doesn't necessarily update the data in its cache at the moment you change the time zone. In most cases, Insights caches data for five minutes, so the time zone change should be evident within five minutes. However, the Environment Assessment report caches data for five hours, so a time-zone change may take up to five hours to be implemented in that report.
