# Working with Time Zone Settings

The ThousandEyes platform offers user-configurable time zones for ThousandEyes test results, snapshots, live shares and notification emails. Time zone settings can be changed on a per-ThousandEyes user level or at an organization level.

## Web Interface

This field sets the time zone for the results timelines of all **Views** screens (test results) *for the current user only*.

To set this field, go to [**Manage > Account Settings > Users and Roles > Profile**](https://app.thousandeyes.com/account-settings/users-roles?section=profile). Find the **Time Zone** section and use the dropdown for the **Web Interface** field.

## Change Organization Defaults

If you have the *Edit default timezone settings* permission, you can set the time zone at an organization level (all users). To configure this setting, go to [**Manage > Account Settings > Organization Settings > Advanced Settings**](https://app.thousandeyes.com/account-settings/organization-settings/?section=advanced):

1. **Web UI Timezone**: Sets the time zone for the results timelines of all **Views** screens (test results) for *all users in the Organization*.
2. **Notification & Snapshots Timezone**: Sets the time zone for share links, snapshots and alert notifications for *all users in the Organization*.

## Views Screens (Test Results)

Below is an example of a ThousandEyes user called Bob who has the following time zone settings:

* **Web Interface**: UTC - Coordinated Universal Time
* **Notification & Snapshots Timezone**: United States - Los Angeles (PST -08:00)

When viewing Network and App Synthetics test results, for example, Bob will have timelines in the **Views** screen shown in the UTC time zone:

## Share Links

Share links follow the time zone selected for the **Notification & Snapshots Timezone** setting. Since Bob's organization is using the Pacific (PST) time zone setting, share links generated by Bob will display results as shown below.

## Alert Notification Emails

Alert notification emails have a start date and end date according to the time zone of the **Notification & Snapshots Timezone** setting. Below is a screenshot of an alert email that Bob received, displaying results in the Pacific (PST) time zone.
