SharePoint Groups Created date
Hello, I have a quick question about groups in SharePoint. I know there are ways to display a Sharepoint user created date. Can you do the same for a group? For example, say I created Group1. Is there anyway in SharePoint that will show the date when Group1 was created? I have been unable to find this. Thanks! Chris

Hi Chris, SharePoint by default doesnt display this information in the user interface, to get the group/user information like created time, you may consider using SharePoint object model, here is the code snippet: public static void getGroupInformation() { using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://siteurl")) { using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb()) { SPList list = web.SiteUserInfoList; SPListItemCollection icoll = list.GetItems(); foreach (SPListItem item in icoll) { Console.WriteLine("item id:{0}, item name:{1}", item.ID, item.Name); } SPListItem itemt = list.GetItemById(26); Console.WriteLine(itemt["Created"].ToString()); } } } Thanks, QiaoQiao Wei TechNet Community Support
