# Working with cron time zones

While using the Collibra APIs you may need to specify cron time zones, for example when creating a JDBC schema ingestion via the REST Catalog API. You can do so by using the [Time Zone Database](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones) (tz) name:

```
{
  "cronTimeZone": "Australia/Brisbane"
}
```

The following is a list of valid time zone names for the `cronTimeZone` key.

| UTC offset                      | Time Zone Database name         | Region                                                 |
