Server time when accessing thingworx in local machine

[svisveswaraiya]

Hi,

When we access the thingworx which is installed in an EST server and access the thingworx through link in local machine, the time get changed according to our local machine. But we do not want the time to get changed. We wanted to view the server date and time. How can we achieve this in ThingWorx?

Time is converted according to browser time (local machine) in ThingWorx. To achieve this you would need custom extension on server side and customize the widget to handle the timezones. There are already many discussion around this topic on community.
