setTimeZone("Europe/London") function returns the date/time in GMT timezone and not in BST

[Helen Rastetska]

I have automated a rule that creates a task with a description that contains a specific date in the "Europe/London" timezone. However, when the rule executes, the result is shown in the GMT timezone, and not in the British time. 

The difference between GMT and "Europe/London" is 1h during the summer time:

The row that is parced incorrectly in the description is:

 ({{version.releaseDate.withHour(7).withMinute(0).setTimeZone("Europe/London").longDateTime}})

It is resulting in the following:

Is that a bug or am I doing something wrong? I need to have exactly british time, otherwise I'll have an issue with timing during 6 months every year.

Much appreciate any advice on that!

Hi Helen, I took a quick look in Atlassian's Jira site (jira.atlasssian.com) and didn't find anything that jumped out at me.  If you can recreate this issue, I would suggest opening a ticket with support (support.atlassian.com/contact).  

They could assist you further to see if this is a known issue or if there is a workaround.

Hope that helps.
