How to get Space creation date with Rest API

Question

Hi,

I'm nruning Confluence Data Center 7.19 and I need to retrieve Spaces creation date and the user that created it with Resti API.
I was checking this post, but I don't get useful informations from that endpoint:

curl -k -X GET https://confluence.site.com/rest/api/space?status=current
{
"id": 281444356,
"key": "PRJ0011599",
"name": "CRM & Marketing Platform",
"type": "global",
"_links": {
"webui": "/display/PRJ0011599",
"self": "https://confluence.si.tecom/rest/api/space/PRJ0011599"
},
"_expandable": {
"metadata": "",
"icon": "",
"description": "",
"retentionPolicy": "",
"homepage": "/rest/api/content/278664854"
}
}

I also tried to check documentation of Rest api, but seems like the documentation for the endpoints property and property/{key} are identical.

Could someone share some insights? Thank you in advance

Hi, yes, but it's not returning anything:

curl -s -k -X GET https://confluence.site.com/rest/api/space?spaceKey=Change/property?expand=history  | jq
{
"results": [],
"start": 0,
"limit": 25,
"size": 0,
"_links": {
"self": "https://confluence.site.com/rest/api/space?spaceKey=Change/property?expand=history",
"base": "https://confluence.site.com",
"context": ""
}
}

Ok,

Did you try to make this call ?

curl -s -k -X GET https://confluence.site.com/rest/api/space/{spaceKey}/property?expand=history

Thank you, problem is that it doesn't:

curl -s -k -X GET https://confluence.site.com/rest/api/space?spaceKey=Change | jq
{
"results": [
{
"id": 4554755,
"key": "Change",
"name": "ChangeManagement",
"type": "global",
"_links": {
"webui": "/display/Change",
"self": "https://confluence.site.com/rest/api/space/Change"
},
"_expandable": {
"metadata": "",
"icon": "",
"description": "",
"retentionPolicy": "",
"homepage": "/rest/api/content/4522249"
}
}
],
"start": 0,
"limit": 25,
"size": 1,
"_links": {
"self": "https://confluence.site.com/rest/api/space?spaceKey=Change",
"base": "https://confluence.site.com",
"context": ""
}
}

I'm using 7.19, not the latest, as previously stated.
Thank you
