Hi, right now the only way of getting at the timestamps is writing a custom operator and using that with DataStream.transform(). Take a look at StreamMap, which is the operator implementation that executes MapFunctions.
I think the links in the doc should point to https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.0/apis/streaming/event_time.html and https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.0/apis/streaming/event_timestamps_watermarks.html. I'll fix the documentation link.
