# Get List item

> Get one Slack List item and its subtasks.

`slack.getListItem` gets one List record and any subtasks beneath it.

```ts automations/get-release-item.automation.ts theme={null}
import { automation, onDashboardRun } from "automate.ax"
import { slack } from "automate.ax/slack"

export default automation("Get release item", () => {
  onDashboardRun({ title: "Get release item" })

  slack.getListItem({
    listId: "F012ABCD3EF",
    itemId: "Rec012ABCD3E",
    includeSubscription: true,
  })
})
```

## Inputs

| --------------------- | --------- | -------- | ------------------------------------ |
| `listId`              | `string`  | Yes      | List containing the item.            |
| `itemId`              | `string`  | Yes      | Item to retrieve.                    |
| `includeSubscription` | `boolean` | No       | Asks Slack to return `isSubscribed`. |
