Hi,
to avoid possible data loss I imported all my data as text (unfortunately there is doesn’t seem to be an import log).
Now I converted everything successfully by some scripts.
I am just not able to update the creation date using the internal corresponding field type.
Is there a way to keep my original dates ?
best

The record object itself has a dateCreated property. It works a little differently than actual fields. When you add a Date Created field, Tap Forms handles it just a bit different because the value is stored on the record object itself and not inside the list of field values.
If you have a separate field that has your creation date values, then you could modify your script to copy the date value into the dateCreated property.
var date_value = record.getFieldValue(field_id);
record.dateCreated = date_value;
Then form.saveAllChanges();
That should work.
What is wrong that it is not working for me ?
I get no error but the field is not beeing updated
