PRA and API call to force check in for all Vault accounts

Hi All

I am trying to find a way to use the API to force check in of vault accounts which have had their password checked out for over 7 days,

I think it is crazy to allow the PRA and the vault account members to checkout their password and allow it to stay checked out (this could be over a year) therefore they could use the password and put it into some automated tasks where it is in plain text and as it is never checked in this will always stay the same.

It seems a lot safer if there was an option within PRA to force check in ( a tick box or something ) and a correct schedule that could be set that would check in all passwords on a set day and time and rotate them. Instead I am having to mess about with APIs which are not very well documented in my opinion.

Therefore has anyone needed to do this and if so how did they go about it?

Thank you in advance.
