# UTC to User timezone in Google Data Studio

By [Manish bhattarai](https://www.c2cglobal.com/articles/author/manish-bhattarai) | September 28, 2022

Hi All,

I have a bigquery table which stores data from Firestore. Firestore stores all the timestamps in UTC timezone. Is there a best practice how I can display those timestamps in user timezone (not in UTC timezone) in Google Data Studio Dashboards?

I would like to avoid converting the timestamp adding another field such as CreatedDateNY (using DateDiff).

you can try the following steps:

- click on the **ADD A FIELD,** right down corner on Data Studio,
- use Formula: DATETIME\_SUB(Order Received, Interval 2 HOUR), you can have your time difference from UTC here
- click **SAVE**
- click** FINISHED**
- move it from the **Available Fields** to the **Dimension**
