Thanks for the responses, Corey and Jennifer.

Corey - is "the timestamp of the file into the NiFi repo" set when the
FlowFile is first created/received, or when the FlowFile is enqueued?
Jennifer's answer indicates that it's set when the FlowFile is first
created/received.

Along these lines, if I clone and transfer a FlowFile, does it use the
timestamp of when the FlowFile was cloned or does it use the first
timestamp of the original FlowFile tracked by provenance?

Thanks,
Brian
