I was wondering if there is a way to find out when a Rise course was first created. It shows the last edited date, but I can't see when it was created. Thanks!
Hi Lasse, thanks for letting us know what additional information you need to see in your Rise courses. I've documented your request and shared it with my team. We'll let you know here if we have any updates on this feature request.
I I agree with the previous writers. The creation date is surely recorded somewhere and thus it is possible to show it. Can you shed light, if you are considering this request for realization?
I'm sharing a workaround for finding the course creation date using the JSON data you can pull from a Rise 360 Share link. As long as you go slowly, a non-JSON literate person like me 😃 can get a lot of data from the Share link:
Open your browser inspect or dev tools once you're on the Share link.
Click on the Network tab and refresh the page.
Look for an xhr file that matches the last string of digits on your Share URL. Click on that file.
Click on the Preview tab and copy that text.
Paste that text into a JSON decoder, like https://jwt.io/, and search for the data. In this case, you'll see the original date that blocks in your course have been created as well as updated. You'll need to scroll through some of your text and formatting tags in the data, but you'll see createdAt and updatedAt entries.
This process should help you get a rough idea of when the course was originally created based on the date of the oldest block. I hope that helps if you haven't been keeping version records like Karl recommends above!
, I need the creation date of all of our Rise content.
I need the creation dates for all the Rise courses, and the folks who created them no longer work with our organization. I am following your steps and have sorted by type under Network to isolate all of the XHR files. None of them match the last string of digits on the Rise 360 share link. So I looked at all of them and none of them have a single line of code like your example in step 4. Any ideas?
Hello Articulate Staff! Has anything yet been implemented in response to the initial question (posted over 4 years ago) and the similar requests from other users? I, too, would benefit from having an easy way to identify when a course was first created and also modified (something like an audit trail or change history would be great). Thanks!

Hi Amanda!
There isn't a way to view the course creation date, but thanks for letting us know you have a need for that! I'll pass your idea along to my team.
And last published date. This is all helpful when there are multiple teams collaborating.
We keep track of this information (and a lot more) in an Excel file.
Creation and last published dates would be very helpful!
yes creation dates would be super helpful!
It would be great to see when the course was last modified by whom and for how long

Chapeau for the extra efforts you are putting in. I find it very unsatisfactory to have to administer another list, just to have that info.

Hi there, David! Here are a few things you can check:
