Remarks

Items contain meta data that can be obtained by mapping these meta data attributes to properties in T. * "_ts": Gets the last modified time stamp associated with the item from the Azure Cosmos DB service. * "_etag": Gets the entity tag associated with the item from the Azure Cosmos DB service. * "ttl": Gets the time to live in seconds of the item in the Azure Cosmos DB service. Note that, this API does not support the usage of IfMatchEtag property at the moment.
