How to change the time zone of a Data Source

You can change the time zone for specific Data Sources in order to align with your business and reporting needs.

WARNING: Changing the time zone for a Data Source can result in a loss of historical data for the Data Source. To retrieve lost historical data, you must set the time zone back to the original setting.
Because of this, it's recommended that any Data Source time zone changes are made immediately upon connecting the Data Source in Databox.
