Variable Type Default Description
GENERIC_TIMEZONE * America/New_York The n8n instance timezone. Important for schedule nodes (such as Cron).
N8N_DEFAULT_LOCALE String en A locale identifier, compatible with the Accept-Language header{:target="_blank" .external-link}. n8n doesn't support regional identifiers, such as de-AT. When running in a locale other than the default, n8n displays UI strings in the selected locale, and falls back to en for any untranslated strings.
