How to check if item is checked-out

Hi guys, I'm creating a SharePoint Designer 2013 workflow where I want to check whether the current item is checked-out or not. Is there any action provided by SharePoint out-of-box or do we have any workaround for the same.

Thanks in advance, please provide your concerns on

Hello Akram,

You can get the value of Checked out status using the field named "Checked Out To". 

  • In your workflow, get the value for the field "Checked Out To"
  • Check whether it is empty or not.
  • Then do the necessary action which you need.
  • If it is NOT empty, this means item has been checked out.
  • If it is empty, this means item is not checked out.
