Temporal data supported by Vector Tile Layer?

I want to display weather data that changes over time in vector format from our own vector tile server and I am trying to understand the ESRI javascript API and the Mapbox vector tiles.

The example to use a VectorTileLayer is easy to understand but I do not see any argument to specify the temporal extent. The only way I see to specify the date would be in the customParameters attribute but I think that is not well supported.

const layer = new VectorTileLayer({ url: "https://myserver.com/rest/services/Weather_Data_VTL/VectorTileServer/" customParameters: { date_time: "2021-01-01T0Z", access_token: "access-token" } });

For example, the CSVLayer can have a timeInfo attribute but I have not seen the same in the VectorTileLayer class.

// Create a csv layer from an online spreadsheet. var csvLayer = new CSVLayer({ url: "http://test.com/daily-magazines-sold-in-new-york.csv", timeInfo: { startField: "SaleDate" // The csv field contains date information. } }); // Create a mapview showing sales for the last week of March 2019 only. var view = new MapView({ map: map, container: "viewDiv", timeExtent: { start: new Date("2019, 2, 24"), end: new Date("2019, 2, 31") } });

Whats the proper way to specify time information in a VectorTileLayer? Is that even possible?

Thanks in advance.
