Notenik Newbie, Timestamp is off by -12 hours

Well, first of all, @GeorgeMag, welcome to our Notenik community! Glad to have you join us!

(And then, if you have a minute, I’m always curious about how you heard about Notenik, and what made you decide to give it a try.)

I think the answer to your question is that the Timestamp field (to quote the Knowledge Base) is “normalized to Greenwich Mean Time.”

The reason for this is that Notenik depends on the Timestamp field, in some cases, to uniquely identify a Note, so it doesn’t want to have to deal with Time Zone variability if you’re moving around the globe.

You might also want to check out the Date Added field, which is similar, but intended more for human readability and usage. I believe this is always set to the local time, if I’m remembering correctly.

Let me know if all this makes sense to you.

Thanks for your question!
