how to determine timezone from 'ek.get_timeseries' python function

Hi,

I tried to use Help(ek.get_timeseries) but am unable to find the parameter for timezone. How do i know which time zone the data is pull in?

This is because the minute data do not match what I pulled in from excel

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. Is there a way to change the timezone?

No, get_timeseries method always returns timestamps in GMT. If you need to convert the timestamps to another timezone, you need to do it in your code. You can find an example of converting DatetimeIndex in pandas dataframe index from GMT to the timezone of your choice on this thread.
