How to get the Jenkins created data and time

I am trying to get the Jenkins build creation date and time.

I tried to get the information using Jenkins rest Api, even rest API is also not saving any information on the Jenkins job creation.

I tried for plugins to get the information but I did,t get proper plugin to save this information.

Please help me on this issue, thanks in advance.

The date of creation is pretty straight forward to get using the jobConfigHistory plugin and the /jobConfigHistory/api/json endpoint.

Choose the earliest json object (the earliest two are usually noted as "operation": "Changed" for some reason) or choose the json object that has "operation": "Created".

I think that a plugin shouldn't be needed to ascertain the date of creation for a Job, but this method does seem to work. I've created a Jenkins Improvement Ticket 28164 requesting the core provide this detail.

I hope you stumbled upon this: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Timestamper - their doc says "Scripts can read the timestamps from the /timestamps URL of each build". This doesn't help you?
