Re: Date created for tables

Hi Tom

can't we get access to this information in a backwards way by using
pg_xact_commit_timestamp()  then query the system catalog tables xmin entry
for the relevant object???

this requires turning on pg_xact_commit_timestamp
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/runtime-config-replication.html

will not show the creation date as it will be lost after an update and
vacuum ...
