We are trying to figure out a way to update the system read-only properties such as 'Created by' and 'Modified Date' in SharePoint. We are using REST API to work with data in SP and hence if there is a REST API to achieve this, it would be great.
We are aware of a workaround to create custom attributes and copy and hide the original columns, but we are looking to understand if there is a REST API way to accomplish this.
