# Fetch checklist by ID

`GET /api/v1/checklists/{id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.checkcherry.com`
- URL: `https://api.checkcherry.com/api/v1/checklists/{id}`
- Auth: none declared. Required headers: `Api-Key`

Returns a single checklist along with its `name`, `checkable_type`/`checkable_id` (the record the checklist is attached to), `allow_edit` for the authenticated user, and progress counts (`complete_count` and `count`).

Visibility is determined automatically based on the authenticated user's role and the checklist's view flags — see the Checklists tag overview for details.

**Required permission:** `assigned_event_read` (when the authenticated user is assigned to the checklist's event) or `unassigned_event_read` (otherwise). User-checklists (personal task lists) are only visible to their owner.

## Path parameters

- `id` integer, required

## Headers

- `Api-Key` string, required

## Response `200`
