Option to schedule datasets in UTC or local time


When we schedule datasets today, Domo schedules them in UTC, so there are no adjustments for Daylight Savings changes.
This means that we need to reschedule datasets that must refresh at a specific time of day locally (i.e., 6 AM Central Time, regardless of whether we are in Standard or Daylight Savings time) twice a year or use another scheduling option outside of the Domo UI.
The ideal solution would be to have the option in the UI during scheduling of whether to use the local time zone or UTC when refreshing the dataset.

Having the ability to schedule connectors to run in local time would also allow more flexibility with weekday vs. weekend scheduling.
I have a connector that I would like to run hourly Monday through Friday from 6 AM to 11 PM EST. Instead, the connector starts running Sunday at 7 PM EST and stops running Friday at 7 PM EST because the day of the week has changed in UTC.
I've confirmed with the Engineering team via Domo Support that everything is working correctly, and this is a limitation of the current scheduling options.
