Hello! I work for a regional campus that is in a different time zone than our main campus. My Canvas account is set to our local time zone while the course is set to our main campus time zone.
I am desiring to set up a delayed announcement. I understand how to do this. However, in order to ensure I input the correct time, will the information be sent based on the course time or local time? Thank you!

Hello @HeatherChildres
I can see how this can be a bit confusing.
I was just looking at THIS guide on the course time zone settings. They list that All dates and times throughout a course are displayed according to the course time zone. So with your delayed announcements, it will go based off of your course time zone settings.
If users have set a specific time zone in their User Settings, all course dates and times will display in their local time, but if they hover over the date and time, they can also see the course date and time.
Hopefully this helps!
