The earliest you'll find out is if you do online check-in and allow them to do text alerts. You might get a text message before you arrive that day of your number. Otherwise they'll tell you when you physically get there.

They won't tell you the number until they know the room is ready. If the previous guest left early, or the sink leaked, or housekeeping is running behind, etc rooms can be released early, or ltate. So until they are 100% sure that room is ready for you to occupy, they won't tell you. It's easier to move you around behind the scenes that to keep telling everyone their room changed when things happen.

On our last trip we received the text with the room number while on the magical express bus. The resort map they provided a link to could have been more helpful, it provided the building location but not the location of the room within the building. The Touring Plans website had that info though so we didnt have to circle the building looking for it.

If you put an early check-in time during online check-in , you'll increase the chance of getting a room earlier in the day. When we've put our actual arrival time, our room was not ready for some time. When we put an earlier time, our room has been ready. We got our text when we were 30 minutes from the resort our last trip.

When you check into the hotel.
I'm sorry if this sounded like a stupid question. It seemed from other threads I read that they give it to you ahead of time.
They do on the cruise ships, but to my knowledge they never have at WDW. The situation is too fluid and there are just too many rooms for it to be even close to workable.

It's not stupid but just wondering why you want it early?

In February, going to CBR, I got a text on the DME with my room number. In May, going to the Yacht Club, I never received the text even though I checked in online. At the front desk, the cast member had no idea why I never received the text.

What in the world would you do with the room number if you got it right now. There are bigger problems in this world.

I haven't heard of anyone getting their room numbers prior to their day of arrival. You can sometimes get an earlier check in... but you might have give up your room that is reserved. For instance, we usually request a room on the ground floor (mom has a bad knee and is 70). In 2016 we were 4 hours early to the resort... and they offered us immediate rooms, but they were on the 3rd floor.
