Using caml query I get Calender Events but Time will be changes..How to get server Time zone ..This return time +5.30 hrs.

  CamlQuery camlQuery = new CamlQuery();
            camlQuery.ViewXml = "<View><Query><Where>" +
                              "<DateRangesOverlap><FieldRef Name=\"EventDate\" />" +
                              "<FieldRef Name=\"EndDate\" />" +
                              "<FieldRef Name=\"RecurrenceID\"/>" +
                              "<Value Type=\"DateTime\"><Month /></Value></DateRangesOverlap>" +
                              "</Where></Query></View>";

  ListItemCollection collListItem = oList.GetItems(camlQuery);

            clientContext.Load(collListItem);


            clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
  foreach (ListItem oListItem in collListItem)
            {

                var Title = oListItem["Title"] != null ? oListItem["Title"].ToString() : "";
                var EventDate = oListItem["EventDate"] != null ? oListItem["EventDate"].ToString() : "";
                var EndDate = oListItem["EndDate"] != null ? oListItem["EndDate"].ToString() : "";
                var Location = oListItem["Location"] != null ? oListItem["Location"].ToString() : "";
                var Description = oListItem["Description"] != null ? oListItem["Description"].ToString() : "";

  Calender item = new Calender();

                item.Title = Title;
                item.EventDate = Convert.ToDateTime(EventDate);
                item.EndDate =Convert.ToDateTime(EndDate);
                item.Location = Location;
                item.Description = Description;

try the below line.

 item.EventDate = TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone.ToLocalTime(EventDate);

I had seen many a times people are struggling with DateTime field in SharePoint. SharePoint internally store DateTime filed into UTC format.

So to solve your problem you need to convert the UTC time in accordance with your sever time zone. You can get the web time zone using SPWeb object. Following is the property you need to use.

SPWeb.RegionalSettings.TimeZone

Also if you are using CSOM C# then you need to refer to Web object instead of SPWeb.

  • Not able to use SPWeb object..I only worked using Client context object. Jun 15, 2017 at 8:27
  • You can use ClientContent.Current.Web object to get RegionalSettings.TimeZone property. Jun 15, 2017 at 10:57
  • Also i was trying out something with SP page JS global variable and found you can extract web application time zone using JS on page as well using _spPageContextInfo.webTimeZoneData property. Jun 16, 2017 at 7:19
