Insights can show days in your local time, and today so far

Insights counted every day in UTC and stopped at yesterday, so if you’re far from UTC, “a day” didn’t match your day, and you couldn’t see how today was going. Now you can switch to your own time zone, and today so far is shown alongside the complete days.

What’s new

• A UTC | Local switch sits beside the range buttons. Local groups each day by your browser’s time zone, so a day that gains or loses an hour for daylight saving is counted as it really was. Your choice is kept in the page address, the CSV link and the CSV file name, so a bookmarked or shared view stays in the same zone.
• Today so far is the first row of the daily table and a lighter last bar in the chart, for a selected workload too.
• Dates you type into Custom are followed straight away. The switch updates as soon as you type a From date, before you press Apply, and keeps your typed dates when you switch.

Limits

• The page opens in UTC. Choose Local each time, or bookmark a Local view.
• Local is available only for ranges whose days all have hourly figures. Today that means ranges starting 28 October 2026 or later, so 7 days now and 30 days in about a month. Otherwise Local is greyed out with a note.
• The cards, “vs prior”, By workload and CSV still use complete days, not today.
• In time zones with a half-hour offset, the hour that crosses local midnight counts for the day it starts in.
• The Local link needs JavaScript, because it reads your time zone from the browser.

What you need to do

Nothing. Open Insights in the portal and choose Local to try it.
