How to get the creation date of a MySQL table?

To get the creation date of a MySQL table, use create_time from information_schema.tables. The syntax is as follows −

SELECT create_time FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE table_schema = 'yourDatabaseName' AND table_name = 'yourTableName';

My table name is 'skiplasttenrecords' and database is ‘test’.

Implement the above syntax for your database and table name. The query is as follows −

mysql> SELECT create_time FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE table_schema = 'test' −> AND table_name = 'skiplasttenrecords';

The following is the output displaying the creation date −

+---------------------+ | CREATE_TIME | +---------------------+ | 2018-11-29 15:47:14 | +---------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
