Hello, This problem only occurred to me today. I create a meeting through Zoom API and it always set the wrong time.
I logged the parameters before sending the request and it's correct. But when I check on my zoom account, the set time is wrong (current time). I checked the set timezones and everything is correct. Did I miss something in here?

This is the parameter of the request before it was sent :

'body' => ' {
                    "topic":"test local",
                    "type":2,"start_time":"2021-12-02T09:00:00",
                    "duration":"119",
                    "timezone":"Asia\\/Tokyo",
                    "password":"VZ9QIs6mje",
                    "agenda":"test",
                    "settings":{"host_video":true,
                                             "participant_video":true,
                                             "join_before_host":true,
                                             "approval_type":2,
                                             "audio":"voip",
                                             "auto_recording":"local",
                                             "alternative_hosts":"dummy4@dummy.jp"
                     }
}'

Hey @earlv__, do you mind posting this within our Dev Forum at https://devforum.zoom.us/? Our Dev team can take a deeper dive into what's going on with your parameter. However, I wanna maybe call out the //\ in your timezone: Asia\\/Tokyo which may be changed to Asia/Tokyo 

 

If that doesn't work, please let me know how posting in our Dev forum goes, and if you don't mind sharing the solution on this thread for other community members who are having the same issue. Thanks!
