Description
Two questions:
1. I understand the purpose of Etag value but when i list files, the etag appears to be a timestamp. Is that correct? Etag and the last modified timestamps are the same.
2. How do I get the creation timestamp of a file/directory? I only see last modified.

"etag": "Fri, 10 May 2019 18:09:25 GMT",
"isDirectory": "true",
"lastModified": "Fri, 10 May 2019 18:09:25 GMT",
"name": "dir1/New &&^Folder"
}
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the ADLS Gen 2 REST API List Files specification referenced by the issue and review how the etag and lastModified fields are defined. Confirm whether creation time is exposed for files or directories, then document the field semantics or the limitation so the two questions have an authoritative answer.
