Hi !

I'm experiencing an odd situation with Kibana 6: I've inserted a datetime which is in GMT+1, which appears correclty under the **JSON** tab on Kibana:

> "collectedTime": "2018-11-05 18:17:07Z",

But on the **Table** tab, Kibana added 1 hour to the initial data:

> November 5th 2018, 19:17:07.000

I would understand if it normalize to GMT, but here it added 1 hour, which means the time showed is now GMT+2 instead of GMT+1.

Can someone help me to understand the behavior, and how do I prevent it ?

With many thanks 🙂

What is the setting of `dateFormat:tz` under Management -\> Advanced settings? If it is set to `browser` than Kibana will display the time in your browsers timezone

Ok, with your advices, I've checked the `dateFormat:tz`, which was "Browser" by default. However, after changed the dateFormat to GMT+1, the date on **Table** still the same, even after restarted Kibana service.

Will it be applied for future insertion only ?
