# Scheduling messages in a different time zone using HTTP API

## How to schedule messages in a different time zone using HTTP API

By default, your message will be scheduled to send in the AEDT timezone.

However, it is also possible to specify a different timezone for scheduling messages. This can be done by including the timezone parameter when sending the scheduled message request, such as:

```
timezone=Australia/Melbourne
```

A full list of supported timezones are detailed below:
