Is it possible to access the date and time that a project was last published in the case where the project is setup to save and publish independently. I want to be able to display this information within the project. I know that I can access the last time that the project was saved, but I need the time that it was published (which is when my users are going to be affected).

I can see from the gateway that this information is stored somewhere, but I don’t know how to access it.

I don’t think it’s currently possible, but we could easily add this information as Client System tags (CurrentProjectLastPublish). Currently, there are tags for the project name and “editcount”, but not much else.

Add the last 5 publish notes as system tags too! 😃
