How to Set Servers To My Local TimeZone in Digital Ocean App Platform

Hie,

I have just started using the Digital Ocean App platform to quickly deploy and test our Microservices. One thing that was quickly discovered by our test users was the 2-hour difference in terms of time indicated on some of the messages sent to the customer. We are using CAT / GMT(+2) but the servertime is 2 hours behind. So the question is, how do we change the DO App Platform Servers to Our TimeZone to get the correct time?

I added it to the App-Level Environment Variables under Settings - App and that works. Don't know if that works as well if you add them into the Environment Variables of the component as well?!

I found the answer from the Digital Ocean Community. The solution to this is to simply add timezone declaration in the environment variables as this: TZ="Africa/Malawi" . It works!
