UTC to PST conversion in ETL
Hi, I am trying to convert the "Date" from UTC to PST in the ETL.
Currently, I created "Send Date PST" with the formula below. TIMESTAMP((convert_tz(`SendDate`
, 'UTC', 'America/Los_Angeles')))
However, when I try to use it in the card and filter for the last 4 hours, my card is blank:
It works when I do the same thing with "All Time" in the date range (instead of the last 4 hours). Is my Send Date PST formula incorrect and how can I fix this?
Thank you for your help in advance!

Try removing the TIMESTAMP() function from your conversion.
A timestamp is a moment in time, with precision down to the microsecond, in no particular time zone. Therefore, it alone does not refer to a specific hour, minute, or second, or even year, month, or day. However, a timestamp may still be treated as if it had values for all of these fields by referring to the timezone setting.
If I had to guess, is that your domo instance timezone settings are messing with the conversion.
