@mjgorman Salt-api currently send back localized datetime in string format. I've not yet decided which way is the best to correctly compensate that the date is not an UTC timestamp or at least an UTC datetime, maybe saltpad could accept a timezone or an offset, will think about it.
It was an oversight to not enforce that JIDs in Salt were in UTC. There's a discussion over in the Salt repo to get this switched over to UTC for the Carbon release. Preliminary replies are making the transition look simple.
Maybe getting more votes on the issue on saltstack would help https://github.com/saltstack/salt/issues/33309
This is useful for me, thought others would like it as well. Our servers are all UTC-0, but I'm lazy and don't want to math in my head.
