AEP schema on class XDM Individual Profile - how to store ingestion batch

[GabrielaNa1]

Hi, I have a schema created based on XDM Individual Profile class. I would like to know if it is possible to store the ingestion batch ID in "createdByBatchID" field that comes out of the box with the class. I am thinking of some run-time function that I can map to that field that will actually insert the current batch's ID into that field, for example similar to how I could map a calculated field now() to _repo.createDate?

On a more general plan, are there metadata functions, like current user loading the data or current batch, stuff like that, that can be mapped to the dataset so we can have audit information attached to the actual data?

Thanks.

What is your use case to store the batchid upon profile?

Audit trail, in case I ever want to investigate anything .. I don't have a very clear plan but something along these lines...

The record based profile will write data upon the dataset and the last write of the data will be available on profile.  I would consider an audit timestamp with the xdm profile schema to track when changes are applied on the dataset instead of the batch_id
