How to modify the creation date of an item of portal for arcgis

Question

Hi

I need to upload PDF file into portal for arcgis. Those pdf file have metadata with a creation date.

When I create the item in the portal , it takes the actual date. but I prefere to display the creationdate stored in the metadata instead. Then I need to change the creation date of the item with my own date.

Unfortunatly the is no function in the rest api to do this.

Do you have any idea ?

Right, the date it's sorting on is the modified date, which you won't be able to update.

Hi

I already use the creation date in tha metadata. But when I sort the Gallery with the most recent. date,  It's the date of the portal item which is used : not the date in the metadata.

Best regards

There's no way to modify the created date of an item in Portal. You might need to use the description or other metadata information to describe that information.
