Data Import/Migration--how to keep original created dates while importing data from another space in contentful ?

[kottek]

We've noticed that when content is imported from the JSON file, the sys.createdAt date changes to when the migration happens.This is not an expected behaviour when data needs to be migrated between spaces.

Is there a workaround for this?

@Khaledgarbaya I have seen a similar post couple of years back and you have assisted on this issue.Can you please help me in this ?

Hey @kottek,

Unfortunately, sys.createdAt is read-only it's set by the backend at creation and we can't change it. the only workaround I can see right now is to have user controlled field for the creation date

Cheers,
Khaled
