# timezone

> Specifies a timezone override for query execution in the embedded session.

In the **Embed URL Builder**, this is the **Timezone** field.

<Note>
  This parameter is URL-only and does not persist to the embed user's `omni_user_timezone` attribute. To persist the timezone attribute for a user, use the [`userAttributes`](/embed/setup/url-parameters/userAttributes) field instead.

  This parameter works the same way as the per-page timezone override feature in Omni. For more information about timezone conversion precedence, see [Timezones](/connect-data/timezones).
</Note>

## Syntax

```markdown theme={null}
timezone=<IANA_timezone>
```

## Properties

<ParamField path="timezone" type="string">
  The timezone to use for query execution. Value must be a valid IANA timezone string (e.g., `America/New_York`, `Europe/London`, `Asia/Tokyo`). Unsupported or invalid timezones are silently dropped.
</ParamField>

## Examples

```markdown title="Set timezone to Eastern Time" theme={null}
timezone=America/New_York
```

```markdown title="Set timezone to UTC" theme={null}
timezone=UTC
```
