Which time zones can I use with the Mindstamp API?

Short answer

Use a standard IANA time zone name, such as America/New_York or Europe/London, in the timezone parameter when you filter API results by date. If you send no time zone, or a name the API does not recognize, the API uses UTC (Etc/UTC).

Example request

This request returns views started in September 2026, with day boundaries in New York time. Some date filters also read an X-Timezone header, so send both.

curl "https://api.mindstamp.com/api/v1/views?started=2026-09-01&finished=2026-09-30&timezone=America/New_York" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "X-Timezone: America/New_York"

Rules

• Use the full IANA name in Region/City form. Abbreviations such as EST or PST are not IANA names.
• An unknown name does not return an error. The API quietly uses UTC, so check your results.
• Names with a sub-region need the full path, for example America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires or America/Indiana/Indianapolis. America/Argentina and America/Indiana alone are not valid.
• The time zone decides which records fall inside a date filter.
