Hi @matteopeluso, could you please clarify the question? Would you like to know the last time you made a new release to an app? Or is it more about identifying the last time you provisioned a new device running a specific app?

You could find the answers to either of these questions by querying balena API:

> **[Resources - Balena Documentation](https://www.balena.io/docs/reference/api/resources/application/)**

First you’d find the `commit` hash that a device or application is running. Then you could query the `release` end point with this `commit` value to get `created_at` timestamp. Does this help?

If you’d like balena CLI to support such use case, we could raise it [on the repo](https://github.com/balena-io/balena-cli/) as a feature request.

Hi

I wanted to know the last time I made a new release to an app but both sound useful thanks for the answer and the resources!
