When using Amplify with DataStore for offline sync, two additional fields (_lastChangedAt and _version) have to be in the Item

Item: {
        'id': {S: event.request.userAttributes.sub},
        '__typename': {S: 'User'},
        'username': {S: event.userName},
        'email': {S: event.request.userAttributes.email},
        'createdAt': {S: date.toISOString()},
        'updatedAt': {S: date.toISOString()},
        '_lastChangedAt': {N: date.valueOf().toString()},  // timestamp
        '_version': {N: '1'},
},
