Documentation bug: Batch.Client.list_jobs

Question

The documentation for list_jobs claims the following:

**createdAt (integer)** –
The Unix timestamp (in milliseconds) for when the job was created.

But in fact, observation shows, the time is actually delivered in microseconds.  Dividing by 1000 gets the kind of answer that other software expects for a timestamp.

Answer

Greetings!

As mentioned in the documentations [1], the createdAt shows an integer which shows the Unix timestamp (in milliseconds) for when the job was created. 
For non-array jobs and parent array jobs, this is when the job entered the SUBMITTED state (at the time SubmitJob was called). For array child jobs, this is when the child job was spawned by its parent and entered the PENDING state.

Thank You!
