ChecklistLibrary
IMPORTANT The SOAP API entered a limited enhancement phase in Q4 2020. Access to version 1.6 will eventually be deactivated. At this time, there is no end-of-lifecycle date.
The ChecklistLibrary entity describes a modular component that can be added to any ticket or task. It outlines the steps that must be performed to complete the ticket or task, and tracks the resource and date/time each step was completed.
