Change Timezone on Server

[johnngondi]

Hello,

How do I change timezone from UTC on the server I mean Laravel Herd?

I am having this problem:
Date from postman: "passDateTime": "12/08/2024 22:26:56"
When I convert the date from string

$passDate = Carbon::createFromFormat('d/m/Y H:i:s', $request->get('passDateTime'));
or....
$passDate = $request->date('passDateTime', 'd/m/Y H:i:s');

I get "2024-08-12T19:26:56.000000Z"

I have realized all I needed to do is add UTC as timezone.

$passDate = Carbon::createFromFormat('d/m/Y H:i:s', $request->get('passDateTime'), 'UTC');
or....
$passDate = $request->date('passDateTime', 'd/m/Y H:i:s', 'UTC');
