Importing date fields from contacts

[paulsapio]

Hello, I had to import all of our contacts, and I noticed that I cant change the create date. I had to make a new field for "old date" is there a way to change the create date from the date I uploaded my leads to the field I made for create date?

Hi @paulsapio 

We understand your goal is to change the contact "create date". However, the contact creation date HubSpot property cannot be edited because "Create Date is a read-only property, so no data can be imported to it.

As a workaround is what you have done so far, by creating a new date-based custom property and you can import this information into this property.

I hope this helps.
