What do you think? …

Love it! Are you planning on adding locations based on cities as well? That would make this API complete IMO!

@leo_at_zapier you mean City > Time Zone? e.g. “Brighton” > “Europe/London”

@leo_at_zapier not sure how feasible that is. Reverse geocoding is a much bigger problem because of shared names, city name translations, etc
Leo Selie
@nikoroberts Europe/London would be great indeed! Maybe if there's a GET that returns cities in an array could help some of that as well? Thanks for considering!

@leo_at_zapier so you mean you would like to pass in the timezone and get a list of cities? “Europe/London” > “[“London”,”Manchester”,…]
Leo Selie
@nikoroberts hmmm... I think I would love to send "Europe/London" and get back "UTC+1" and separately a GET with "London" which could(/should?) should have a flag for a fuzzy search and return an array with available locations and their timezone. I'm just thinking that not everyone with have the long/lang but still would like to dynamically retrieve timezone settings, if that makes sense?

It's a nice too. Does it allow to check the time zone with country or city names?

@basharath not currently. Countries can have multiple time zones. That’s probably a fairly easy list to compile and then perform a lookup against to return an array of timezones.
