Problem

I would like to know when our Projects have been created in order to keep a thorough track of my projects. Is that possible?

Solution

Yes, that is possible. 

The first thing to keep in mind is that Jira does not save the Project creation date, but Projectrak does. What is the problem then? That the Project creation date will only appear since you first installed Projectrak forward. 

Here you can find a script that will help you fetch the Project creation date:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.deiser.jira.profields.project.extra.ProjectExtraService
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat

def projectExtraService = ComponentAccessor.getOSGiComponentInstanceOfType(ProjectExtraService.class)
def simpleDateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("YYYY")
def pattern = "%s-%s"
def projectExtra = projectExtraService.get(project)
def date = projectExtra.creationDate ? simpleDateFormat.format(projectExtra.creationDate) : "1900"

return String.format(pattern, date, projectExtra.projectId)
