Hey there

#

Where are you seeing Oct 19, exactly?

#

In your Dashboard?

turbid berry Sep 28, 2022, 4:51 PM

#

Yes, the first invoice is set for Oct 19

modest panther Sep 28, 2022, 4:51 PM

#

Gotcha, the Dashboard is localized. What timezone are you in?

turbid berry Sep 28, 2022, 4:52 PM

#

Oh

modest panther Sep 28, 2022, 4:52 PM

#

All timestamps via the API are UTC

turbid berry Sep 28, 2022, 4:52 PM

#

I'm in ET right now

modest panther Sep 28, 2022, 4:52 PM

#

So yeah that's why

turbid berry Sep 28, 2022, 4:53 PM

#

What I'm doing:

I create a datetime set to midnight (local tz)
I get the timestamp of that datetime
I pass that timestamp in

#

*in to stripe

#

Would it not be the case that what I see in the dashboard should be a day ahead and not a day behind?

#

Actually, never mind. I see the issue. The Dashboard as you said is in ET (actually PT), while the date I passed in is UTC midnight. So the Dashboard shows a day earlier

#

Thank you!
