# list-supported-time-zones

Get the list of time zones that are supported for the user, as configured on the user's mailbox server. You can explicitly specify to have time zones returned in the Windows time zone format or Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) time zone (also known as Olson time zone) format. The Windows format is the default. When setting up an Outlook client, the user selects the preferred time zone from this supported list. You can subsequently get the preferred time zone by getting the user's mailbox settings. 💡 TIP: Lists time zones the user's mailbox server supports. TimeZoneStandard path parameter must be one of: Windows (default — Windows time zone names like 'Pacific Standard Time'), or Iana (IANA / Olson names like 'America/Los_Angeles'). Note the PascalCase — the values are case-sensitive enums, not lowercase strings. Returns timeZoneInformation objects with alias and displayName. Use the result to validate or look up the value before calling update-mailbox-settings to change the user's preferred timeZone — the format must match what the server expects.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `top` | number | no | Page size (Graph $top). Start small (e.g. 5–15) so responses fit the model context; raise only if needed. Use $select to return fewer fields per item. For more |

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "list-supported-time-zones",
    "arguments": {

    }
  }
}
```

## Why list-supported-time-zones is rated Low

Even though list-supported-time-zones only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

## Use case

AI agents call list-supported-time-zones to retrieve information from Ms 365 without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Ms 365:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list-supported-time-zones": {}
  }
}
```
