## Request

- URL: `https://sb2api.servicechannel.com/v3/workorders/{workOrderId}/leakWasDetected`
- Auth: OAuth 2
  - Authorization code: `https://sb2login.servicechannel.com/oauth/authorize`
  - Token URL: `https://sb2login.servicechannel.com/oauth/token`

Returns the information about the leak detected on the specified work order. This answer is saved when the user answers the question “Did you find a leak?” while entering a leak inspection on a refrigerated work order.
            <br />***Note***: The *RTMultiLeakFlow* feature flag should be enabled.
            <br />The possible values in the response are the following:
             • `true`: The user detected a refrigerant leak and set the answer to "Yes".
             • `false`: The user didn’t detect any refrigerant leak and set the answer to "No".
             • `null`: There is no information about the detected leak. The *RTMultiLeakFlow* feature is not turned on, or the specified work order is not of refrigerant type. 
            <br />Learn from ServiceChannel University how providers can enter a leak inspection in the [SC Provider app](https://servicechannel.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SCUCP/pages/657358869/Using+SC+Provider+Mobile+with+Refrigerant+Tracking+Management) and in [ProviderAutomation](https://servicechannel.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SCUCP/pages/3349938197/Entering+a+Leak+Inspection). 
            <br />Once you try out this method, you can use the `leakWasDetected` value as an input parameter for updating the leak inspection information in the [PUT /workorders/{workOrderId}/UpdateWorkOrderLeakInspectionInfo](https://developer.servicechannel.com/swagger/index.html#/WorkOrders/PUTv3_workorders_%7BworkOrderId%7D_UpdateWorkOrderLeakInspectionInfo%3FrefrigerantWasUsed%3D%7BrefrigerantWasUsed%7D%26leakWasDetected%3D%7BleakWasDetected%7D) method.
