The time zone for scheduling phone call is wrong. My time zone is UTC+8 but the system is PST. I cannot make phone call now.

Hi there! I understand you're having trouble with the time zone settings for scheduling phone calls. 👋 I don't have specific information about why your system is defaulting to PST instead of your GMT+8 time zone, but I can definitely help you with several approaches to fix this time zone discrepancy. Here are some ways you can configure the system to correctly use your GMT+8 time zone: 1. Set the timezone in your system prompt using a date formatting function:
Copy code
{{\"now\" | date: \"%b %d, %Y, %I:%M %p\", \"Asia/Singapore\"}}
You can replace "Asia/Singapore" with another city in the GMT+8 zone like "Asia/Shanghai" or "Asia/Hong_Kong" [according to the documentation](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1325196797102260304). 2. Add the current date and time at the beginning of your prompt with the correct time zone:
Copy code
The current date is {{\"now\" | date: \"%A, %B %d, %Y\", \"Asia/Singapore\"}} and the time is {{\"now\" | date: \"%I:%M %p\", \"Asia/Singapore\"}}
This has helped users with similar issues [as mentioned in the documentation](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1334271734332784773). 3. Ensure your system's timezone settings are correctly configured, as this can affect how datetime values are displayed [according to user reports](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1336995626604564551). 4. If you're using a server endpoint to route calls, you can modify the timezone configuration in your code:
Copy code
javascript
   const BUSINESS_HOURS = {
     timezone: 'Asia/Singapore', // Change this to a GMT+8 timezone
     // other settings
   };
[As shown in examples](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1341224148667600976). Would you like me to explain any of these approaches in more detail or help with something else? Sources:
