Hi Xingcan, Thanks for your quick response and now I understand it better. To clarify, do you mean try to add a static time when I override extractTimestamp function?
For example, override def extractTimestamp(element: MyEvent, previousElementTimestamp: Long): Long = { val timestamp = element.getCreationTime() + 3600000L //1 hour delay currentMaxTimestamp = max(timestamp, currentMaxTimestamp) timestamp } Appreciate your help!
