Is there a way to change the createdAt value?
1
Right now I'm working on a case where I need to change the createdAt date made when a collection is made. Does anyone know how to do this? I've already tried adding a field called createdAt with type date to my collection, but when I change the value through this and save, the actual will always revert back to it's initial date.
You could try changing it in a
beforeChangehook:
https://payloadcms.com/docs/hooks/collections#beforechangeHowever, I'm not totally sure at what point the timestamps are injected. If they are not there yet you could try updating the document in an
afterChangehook.
