Get the current timezone 

require 'ASMConfig'
                              
                              # Get timezone settings
                              url = ASM::API::URI("/Timezone")
                              
                              response = ASM::API::sign {  
                              RestClient.get url
                              }
                              # Save it for future use as a payload 
                              payload = ASM::Payload.from_xml(response)
                              payload.save_xml('timezone.xml')

Here we utilize a block construct to sign our request. All RestClient invocations inside the sign block will automatically be signed. The url is specified simply as ‘/Timezone’ because ASM has already been configured with the base path prefix /Asm/V1. The response object as XML is: 

<timeZone>
                              <timeZone>(UTC-06:00) Central Time (US & Canada)</timeZone>
                              <timeZoneId>11</timeZoneId>
                              </timeZone>

which we saved in the file ‘timezone.xml’ as a payload used in the next example to set the timezone.
