How to check the creation date of your databases (MySQL)

The Query

If you have a lot of databases and you want to check their creation dates just run this SELECT.

If the ‘create_time’ is null then your user won’t have the necessary permissions.

SELECT
    table_schema,
    MAX(create_time) create_time,
FROM information_schema.tables
-- where TABLE_SCHEMA ='myDb' -- uncomment for specific database
GROUP BY TABLE_SCHEMA
SORT BY create_time
