how can I specify the TZ of the timestamps in Eikon python api?

how can I choose the timezone of the arguments but also of the returned values in the result data frame?

eg:
ek.get_timeseries(i, start_date = "2021-07-18T00:00:00", end_date = "2021-07-20T16:34:05", interval="minute")

@opsp

From my testing, I can specify timezone with this format "2020-12-10T14:50:00-02:00".

thanks. I'll check again. meanwhile, can you confirm that there are no user preferences that might define the API timezone presentation?

As I know, there are no user preferences in Eikon Data API.
