I've created an integration to sync one of my calendars to Google; however, I noticed today that when I sync events after the time change the time posted to Google is off by an hour. It appears to me that the problem is caused by using the custom function timeOffsetUTC which assumes 'today' (ie GetCurrent... which is 'in' a different daylight savings time 'state').

Has anyone created a custom function variation which is capable of evaluating the timeOffset based on the date of the record currently being viewed?

Thanks for any insights!

Hi Colleen,

Thanks for posting here. To confirm, are you using SeedCode Subscribe to integrate with Google, or your own custom integration? There is a timezone option in Subscribe (which is no longer available for sale), but I don't unfortunately have any insight for this outside Subscribe.

All the best,

Thanks Dan!

No, not Subscribe. I'm using my own integration.

I'll reach out to some others who may have a solution.

Thanks again!
Colleen
