Is it possible to set client_modified on an existing file in v2 API?
Being able to set client_modified on an existing file would be really helpful for rclone.
I looked through the API methods and couldn't see a way but I'm hoping I missed it!
Thanks

It's not currently possible to override the client_modified value set by the client using the API, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.
Is there any update on this feature request?

The upload endpoints, such as /2/files/upload, do now allow you to explicitly set `client_modified` when uploading a new version of a file.
For reference, do you need to be able to do so without uploading a new version?
