Daily watcher is not running on its scheduled time

[Wilbert_Silverio]

Hi Everyone just wanted to ask questions here, I've created a watcher that would run from 23:00 to 08:00 am eastern, minute 30th, 59th

{
  "trigger": {
    "schedule": {
      "daily": {
        "at": [
          {
            "hour": [
              0,
              1,
              2,
              3,
              4,
              5,
              6,
              7,
              8,
              23
            ],
            "minute": [
              30,
              59
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  },
  "input": {
    "search": {
      "request": {
        "search_type": "query_then_fetch",
        "indices": [
          "stats-p*"
        ],
        "types": [],
        "body": {
          "size": 0,
          "query": {
            "bool": {
              "filter": {
                "range": {
                  "@timestamp": {
                    "time_zone": "-04:00",
                    "gte": "now-60m"
                  }
                }

the issue that I found is that it stop running at 5:00 am eastern and it also runs at 19:00 to 22:30 eastern

see image below
the large box shows the watcher runs from 19:00 to 22:30 (you might get confused on the timezone as it shows +12hrs time difference on my local desktop)

the small box shows it stop running at 5:00 am eastern (the image shows a +12hrs time difference on my local desktop)

You should convert your schedule time to UTC time.
