You can head to [Postman Monitors](https://monitor.getpostman.com) to see the allowed schedules. \n\nFor more information about the format of the `timezone` value, check this [list of time zones.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones)\n\n> Requires <a href=\"#authentication\">API Key</a> as `X-Api-Key` request header or `apikey` URL query parameter."
