How to get whencreated for a smartsheet user in the API

robert.nystrom

When we download the user report it includes both lastlogin and whencreated. In looking at the user api we see the option to add lastlogin which works great, but how can we get the whencreated for a user?

Hi @robert.nystrom

I don't believe there is a way to get this data from the general API, based on the current documentation: https://smartsheet.redoc.ly/tag/usersObjects

That said, if you're on an Enterprise plan, you can get more data around users (such as when they were automatically added to an account or when they accepted an account invite) through using the Event Reporting add-on. Here's the Help Documentation for this:

Here's the Event Reporting docs:
