How to Set Your Agent's Time Zone

Last updated: July 18, 2025

You can configure the time zone for your Retell AI agent to ensure it operates in your local time zone. This is useful for scheduling calls and ensuring accurate time-based responses.

Setting the Time Zone

Time zones are configured using system variables in your agent configuration. Use the timezone system variable with the appropriate IANA time zone identifier (e.g., "America/New_York" for Eastern Time).
