Hi all,

I have a date filter in logstash as below :

```auto
date {
   match => ["[@metadata][timestamp]", "ISO8601"]
   timezone => "Asia/Kuala_Lumpur"
}

```

However, when I try to export into CSV, the @timestamp field is always in UTC time.  
Is there any way I can show it in Asia/Kuala\_Lumpur time?

Thanks

Hello

There is a bug like this: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/56497](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/56497)  
So you will have to change the `dateFormat:tz` setting in Advanced Settings in your Kibana instance, then the CSV export will take that timezone in consideration when exporting the data.

Hi Marius\_Dragomir,

Thanks for the input! It works when I change the `dateFormat:tz` setting!
