List of acceptable Google Calendar api time zones

I'm working with Google's Calendar API, and I'm running into a bit of an issue. When I set the dateTime of an event I insert, I'm required to set the hour offset, but because o DST, it's off an hour. There is a property I can set for the calendar to set the timezone by name, which I would think would fix my problem, because Google would figure out the correct hour offset. However I do not know all of them, nor can I find a place that lists them. For example "America/Los_Angeles" or "Europe/Zurich". Anybody know where I can find them?

I think I have found the list that I was looking for on this website:

http://www.timezoneconverter.com/

Here is what I ended up needing:

America/New_York
America/Chicago
America/Denver
America/Los_Angeles

Specifically it was on this page

I grabbed from moment-timezone but these are based on ISO standards. Here is another example source from wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones as well for cross reference.
