Timezones and API was created by Jmantysalo

I am wandering about timezones. A live in Finland, timezone UTC+2, and the server in question is also there. An API call added a participant having 'valid from' set at 10:50. API calls for invitations at 11:15 and 12:15 said "Token not valid yet", API call at 13:15 sent the invitation.

So I do not quite get this. Why there is the setting for timezone at the first place, usually programs use the system setting?

What time is the server set to? Just because the server is in the same time zone, doesn't necessarily mean it also is configured to that time zone.

Help us to help you!

Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).
