Timestamp fields in GitHub Projects

[sunnyi101]

GitHub Projects now includes three built-in timestamp fields: Created, Updated, and Closed. You can add them to any project view to sort and filter work based on when it was opened, last updated, or closed.

Area.mp4

• Created: When the issue, draft issue, or pull request was created.
• Updated: When the item was last updated, including both issue/pull request changes and project field changes like updating the status. This timestamp can differ between projects for the same item.
• Closed: When the issue or pull request was closed, making "recently completed" views easy to build.

To get started, click + to add a field in any project and select Created, Updated, or Closed from the list.

I'm not sure if I overlooked it, but I've been unable to see these new fields as date fields in the roadmap view. Are they there?

This is amazing! It’s exactly what I needed to remove the need for custom dates. Can we group by these fields with the Table view in the future?

Are they date fields or date time (timestamp) fields? I see the created field looks like a date, no time.
