Input local timestamp in timestream

Question

Hi, I realised that my timstream data time does not reflect my local time. Is there a way to convert to a local timestamp? Thank you.

My local time is UTC +8.

Answer

Amazon Timestream only supports UTC at this time, but you could use from_iso8601_timestamp(string) to format the results in a query with your time zone. There is an example of how you might use it in this stack overflow article.

More information on the function in the AWS documentation.

Answer

Hi

Currently, time-stream does not support Timezone. The only way available if the input time different from UTC is to add or subtract to offset before input into table.
