Timestamp value differs when queried

Developing with Prismic
1

Hello, everyone.

We need some direction with the timestamp field. We've entered the following date/times in Prismic:

start: 12-13-2021 05:00:00 pm -05:00
end: 12-13-2021 08:00:00 pm -05:00

However, when we query the document that contains these values, they're returned as follows:

start: 2021-12-13T22:00:00+0000
end: 2021-12-14T01:00:00+0000

The user is selecting a time relative to EST (our local time zone) but Prismic is switching it to UTC. How to avoid this conversion or will we have to convert it back when we query Prismic?

Hello @steve.king, thanks for letting us know about this. I'll inform the dev team. We'll come back when we have more information.

Thanks

[UPDATE]: The UI of the document will show the timezone of the content editor's browser. Prismic will return date / time in UTC in API / GraphQL.
