The Created At Time field exposes the element’s metadata and cannot be edited. When the element is created, the Date and Time will be recorded.

Depending on your project needs, this Created at Time can be used as the date of a building survey for example, if you are creating Layer elements in the field. But if you have already created a list of rooms prior to your survey, then this Created At Time only reflects the time the element was created and cannot be used as a survey date.

Also, if you are importing a spreadsheet, all the elements created will have the same Created At Time. If you would like to manually control the dates used, then we suggest using the Date field.
