Interesting question and thanks for raising this. The schedules on the CLI are meant for simpler use cases (running flow X every Y minutes/seconds/hours etc.) and for more advanced configuration, such as setting the timezone, I'd recommend doing that via UI. Would this work for you?

there are some UX improvements and bug fixes for setting schedules via UI which are still in progress, but doing this via UI seems to be the easiest - curious to hear how you think about this?

This would ease up my CI workflows as well, if we could set timezone via cli - nevertheless for now it works as well with the UI. Comfort improvement, so to say 🙂

Let me open an issue to investigate and discuss with the team
@Marvin open "Explore extending schedules set from CLI to include custom timezones"

08/18/2022, 2:10 PMso not sure when that api was introduced… it’d be nice if that was also in the docs 🙂

for sure, it can be done via API, so no surprise there -- Oscar asked about CLI though :)
