Help with understanding how timezone works with onlyPostsNewerThan and onlyPostsOlderThan

Closed

Great actor.

One thing that is not clear to me is how the date filtering works with time zones.

Questions:

  • Does the timezone of the onlyPostsNewerThan and onlyPostsOlderThan affect the filter results?
  • What timezone does the scrape "see" the posts in?

What is the expected behaviour in these cases:

  1. Given onlyPostsNewerThan is 2025-01-01 would a post made on 2025-01-01T00:01:00+01:00 be included?
  2. Given onlyPostsNewerThan is 2025-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 would a post that was made on 2025-01-01T00:01:00+00:00 be included?

Hi!

Suggested usage is UTC in ISO format, i.e. 2025-01-23T01:53:23.629Z Internal dates and times from Instagram are also expected to be UTC, so to prevent confusion, please just stick with UTC

I will close the issue now, but if there is anything else we could help with, please let us know.
