SharePoint Online Folder Created Date may experience a discrepancy in timestamps when using CSOM and Batch Mode.
This behavior is a known issue within OneDrive for Business / Office 365.
DryvIQ will attempt to preserve timestamps on folders when using both CSOM and the batch API. However, the behavior of SharePoint Online is to update the folder's modified dates whenever a file is uploaded into it.
As a result, when using CSOM, the timestamps will be preserved when the folder is initially created but then updated after every file that gets uploaded. When using batch API, it preserves the timestamps on the folders after all of the files within the batch are committed. This is the cause for the discrepancy between the two methods.
