Description
Public API will be updating its time zone format to align with the current IANA time zone identifier convention. This change from the previous Olson format will improve data accuracy. For example, certain countries no longer follow daylight savings time. This will reflect that.
Change Category
API
Change Context
Date and time formatting standards are continually evolving. To provide a better user experience and maintain accuracy, we are updating our API to follow the modern IANA time zone identifier format. This standard moves away from the shorter, original time zone formats.
You can find the latest IANA tz database information here: Time Zone database
Change Impact
Customers consuming API responses will observe a change in the format of the timeZone
response fields. Time zones will now be represented by city name instead of the previous short format.
For example, EST5EDT
will now appear as America/New_York
in API responses.
Users who rely on the previous short format may need to adjust their applications to accommodate this change.
