data_from or data_to parameter, which timezone?

Hi,

I have a question about 'date_to' or 'date_from' parameter of get_news_headline method.

I use Eikon Data APIs from Japan, though, can I specify these parameters in JST?

@takeru.sekine it is in GMT, I believe. You can use pyzt library to convert the timestamp, see this article.

@Zhenya Kovalyov Thanks! It doesn't match the time displayed on Eikon Desktop and the time specified by myself on API. No wonder it felt odd.

I'll try the package! Thank you very much!
