How Can I See the Date and Time a Build Started or Ended

Build Date and Time

Follow the steps below to access the date and time of a build, either in the UI or via the API

In the UI

There are 2 places in the UI where this information can be found, the next two sub-sections will explain this:

On the pipelines page

The pipelines page can be found by clicking on "Pipelines" from the left hand navigation bar. This will produce a chronological list of pipelines that have run from the projects that you follow. You can view the start time of a build by hovering over the value in the "Start" column, this will show a tooltip with the start time:

The start and end times can also be viewed by hovering over the value in the "Duration" column. Just like the start time, a tooltip will appear with the start time followed by the end time:

 

On the build summary page

On the build summary page you can hover over the value in the "Duration / Finished" column. If you hover over the value for "Duration" this will show you the start and end times:

If you hover the value for "Finished", this will show you just the end time:

  • That's hard to find for such a useful piece of information, could it be made more visible?
