[jira] [Commented] (UNOMI-482) SetPropertyAction eventArrivalTime

["Serge Huber (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UNOMI-482?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17339655#comment-17339655 ] 

Serge Huber commented on UNOMI-482:
-----------------------------------

Again this is only true if the event is provided with an external timestamp which in most cases is not the usual usage.

Maybe we could instead check if the timestamp is older than the current system time and change the behavior of the "now" in this case as well as the lastUpdatedTime. Also I could see some scenarios where it could be interesting to have the lastUpdateTime set to the event timestamp in the past (data migration or copy scenarios).

> In setPropertyAction, "now" in propertyValue is being translated to event.timeStamp.
> I would like to add support for "eventArrivalTime" which will be the current time in which the event got into Unomi.
> an example to emphasize the need - 
> event1 arrived with timestamp - 8:00
> then, event2 arrived with timestamp - 7:00
> the profile will be updated with lastUpdatedTime - 7:00, which is not true
