Click `Settings` in the left-hand pane 2. Select your workspace under `WORKSPACES` 3. Check the `Set the Run now function to use Browsers with JST` option under `Timezone` ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a099d8a2-cfd2-42ca-9906-68b4a337f4a5/Images/Documentation/image(161).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T05%3A12%3A03Z&se=2026-11-01T06%3A12%3A03Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=8DOTZNh32674hPHtXlkyWT8RH%2BDLSt0sChu2MsavVKs%3D) ## Using JST during test execution You can choose to run your tests in JST in the same way you normally run your tests: - Directly from the scenario editor - As an environment in a test plan - Using the Autify API ### **Using JST from the scenario editor** If you have set JST execution as the default in your workspace settings, you can run scenarios in JST by clicking the `Run now (JST)` button in the top right of the scenario editor. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a099d8a2-cfd2-42ca-9906-68b4a337f4a5/Images/Documentation/image(162).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T05%3A12%3A03Z&se=2026-11-01T06%3A12%3A03Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=8DOTZNh32674hPHtXlkyWT8RH%2BDLSt0sChu2MsavVKs%3D) ### **Using JST in your test plan** The test plan UI displays timezone information in the names of each environment. Environments that support JST execution will have `(JST)` in their names, while environments that do not support JST execution will have `(UTC)` in their names. If you want to use JST execution for an environment that is unsupported, please contact the support team with details about your needs. #### If your default timezone is JST If you have set JST execution as the default in your workspace settings, the UI will primarily display execution environments that use JST. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a099d8a2-cfd2-42ca-9906-68b4a337f4a5/Images/Documentation/image(163).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T05%3A12%3A03Z&se=2026-11-01T06%3A12%3A03Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=8DOTZNh32674hPHtXlkyWT8RH%2BDLSt0sChu2MsavVKs%3D) > [!NOTE] > What about UTC execution? > > Even if you’ve set JST as the default execution timezone, you can still choose UTC execution by selecting browsers and devices with (UTC) after their names. You can combine JST and UTC test execution in the same test plan. > > ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a099d8a2-cfd2-42ca-9906-68b4a337f4a5/Images/Documentation/image(164).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T05%3A12%3A03Z&se=2026-11-01T06%3A12%3A03Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=8DOTZNh32674hPHtXlkyWT8RH%2BDLSt0sChu2MsavVKs%3D) #### If your default timezone is UTC If you have not set JST execution as the default in your workspace settings, the UI will display all execution environments at a glance. To run a test in JST, simply choose an environment with `(JST)` in its name. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a099d8a2-cfd2-42ca-9906-68b4a337f4a5/Images/Documentation/image(182).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T05%3A12%3A03Z&se=2026-11-01T06%3A12%3A03Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=8DOTZNh32674hPHtXlkyWT8RH%2BDLSt0sChu2MsavVKs%3D) ### **Using JST with the API** If you want to execute a scenario in JST, you can define the `timezone` capability when making an API request over https or the Autify CLI. | **Capability** | **Possible Values (string)** | | --- | --- | | `timezone` | “JST” | | | “Asia/Tokyo” | > [!WARNING] > The API uses UTC by default > > Even if you have enabled JST execution in your workspace settings, scenarios will be executed in UTC by default if you do not specify the timezone capability in your request. #### **Example using Autify CLI** The following is an example of an API request via Autify CLI that uses the `timezone` capability to run a test in JST. Replace `<WORKSPACE_ID>` and `<SCENARIO_ID>` with the proper values for your test. ```bash autify web api execute-scenarios --project-id '' --execute-scenarios-request '{  "name": "Testing JST with the timezone capability",  "capabilities": [      {          "os": "Linux",          "browser": "Chrome",          "timezone": "JST"      }  ],  "scenarios": [      {          "id":      }  ] }' ``` For more information on using Autify’s API, please read [Flexible test execution via API](/v1/docs/flexible-test-execution-via-api). ## Confirming which timezone your test was executed in You can confirm the timezone of your test execution in the following locations in the UI. ### Test results page `https://app.autify.com/projects/<###>/results` ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a099d8a2-cfd2-42ca-9906-68b4a337f4a5/Images/Documentation/image(166).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T05%3A12%3A03Z&se=2026-11-01T06%3A12%3A03Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=8DOTZNh32674hPHtXlkyWT8RH%2BDLSt0sChu2MsavVKs%3D) ### Test result capabilities page `https://app.autify.com/projects/<###>/results/<###>/capabilities/<###>` ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a099d8a2-cfd2-42ca-9906-68b4a337f4a5/Images/Documentation/image(167).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T05%3A12%3A03Z&se=2026-11-01T06%3A12%3A03Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=8DOTZNh32674hPHtXlkyWT8RH%2BDLSt0sChu2MsavVKs%3D) ### At the top of the scenario detailed test results page `https://app.autify.com/projects/<###>/results/<###>/capabilities/<###>/scenarios/<###>` ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a099d8a2-cfd2-42ca-9906-68b4a337f4a5/Images/Documentation/image(168).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T05%3A12%3A03Z&se=2026-11-01T06%3A12%3A03Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=8DOTZNh32674hPHtXlkyWT8RH%2BDLSt0sChu2MsavVKs%3D) ### ###
