Using BIM 360 Field API (legacy) to get checklist location - autodesk-bim360

Question

Title is a good summary.
The /api/get_checklists POST is deprecated and returns back empty data. So I use the GET /fieldapi/checklists/v1/ to get the list of checklist items, and then I used the id in the GET /fieldapi/checklists/v1/:id to get the 'complete details.' Unfortunately the JSON data does not include the location/area (I have verified this by querying the data, then changing the location, querying it again, and comparing the results). Looking for a way to get this information.
Side note: Not a fan of including the ticket in the URL param. The GET does support including the ticket in the body though... (not a very good RESTFUL design though).
Using postman to query the information.
Some sample outputs (I scrubbed most of the values):
{
"id": "",
"project_id": "",
"created_at": "",
"updated_at": "",
"created_by": "",
"status": "Open",
"company": {},
"description": "",
"source": [
{
"id": "",
"type": "Equipment"
}
],
"identifier": "",
"template": {
"id": "",
"name": ""
},
"checklist_type": "",
"name": "",
"priority": "",
"signatures": [],

},
{

our engineer team confirmed it is true the location isn’t included in fieldapi/checklists/v1:id. And the example in API document result doesn’t show it returns location. Sorry if this a bad news to you. I logged a wish CS-35616 to ask for exposing location with fieldapi/checklists/v1:id.
As to The /api/get_checklists POST is deprecated and returns back empty data. , you might need to specify ‘checklist_ids’ and ‘forced_checklist_ids’in the call. While by api/get_checklist_headers, get the ids ( completed_checklist_id) as the input.
