My `recording.completed` webhook is returning `timezone` as the empty string and all of the datetime fields are in UTC. My account profile has the timezone set to `(GMT-8:00) Pacific Time (US andCanada)`. Is there something else I need to configure to get datetime fields returned with my configured timezone or have my configured timezone returned in the webhook?

Hi @asc.nsv

Thanks for your patience.  
I have been doing some testing on my side and I was not able to replicate the issue. I am getting the Timezone right. Could you please send me your account ID or email associated with your account to [developersupport@zoom.us](mailto:developersupport@zoom.us) and a link to this thread and I will take it from there.

Best,  
Elisa

For anyone else that comes across the issue. Time zone information is not included in webhooks for type 1 (instant) meetings. It will however show up for type 2 (scheduled) meetings.

For the record I think it would be nice if the account time zone was included in instant meetings.

Thanks for all the help Elisa!
