NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Cloud. Using Confluence Server? See the corresponding suggestion.
Status Update: 11 March 2022
Hi folks, my name is Daniel Ayele and I'm a Product Manager on the Confluence team where I manage our collaboration feature family. Thank you for your feedback and suggestion to add the ability to uncheck a list of tasks. I'm excited to announce that we have plans on our roadmap to make a number of improvements to the tasks experience in Confluence in the next 12 months, including improving task creation, a new tasks home experience, and updates to the task report macro to make it even more powerful. As part of this effort we will take this suggestion into consideration. Stay tuned to our community and other product update channels to learn more when we bring this functionality to market.
The suggestion is to have a feature that allows unchecking many tasks at once, not having to uncheck every checkbox - maybe a reset button for all the tasks on a page.
Another way I thought about doing this is to be able to indent tasks - so tasks indented under a task could have their checkboxes controlled by this task.

[CONFCLOUD-37184] Uncheck list of tasks
My current hack is to open the developer console in my browser (F12 in most), and run the following to uncheck everything.
document.querySelectorAll('input[type=checkbox]').forEach(el => (el.checked) ? el.click() : null);
I'd love to create a button macro for this, but my organization has it all locked down.
Only 48 days left until the 10th anniversary of this thread!
Let's get some cake ready!
Atlassian, please consider implementing this feature. Perhaps it could be added as a template option in the 'Smart Button' Element.

Our team requires the ability to 'clear' procedural checklists following completion.

Looking forward to having this functionality!
Manually unchecking dozens of action items on a page is such a slow and unnecessary process.
Can we get an update on this? "Plans to improve tasks in the next 12 months" was said 2.5 years ago without a word since.
There are no other apps on the marketplace or viable workarounds for this very basic and necessary check/uncheck all functionality.
What about adding check & uncheck tasks/"action items" as an option in rule Automation? Then we could configure it to automatically "refresh" the list (uncheck all) once a day, or when all tasks have been completed, etc.
Oh, so I may have misunderstood here.
I just searched for the problem I have, and this is where I ended up.
However, I'm not using the cloud version, but I see now that it says "cloud" in the issue-name and in the corner.
So maybe what works for cloud does noe work for the private datacenter server version that we have?
Anyways, thanks so much for your help, @Michael Stilmant.
To address the need for a feature to uncheck multiple tasks simultaneously, we've created a free "Check/Uncheck Tasks Macro" available on the Atlassian Marketplace: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1237370
This macro provides the solution to check or uncheck tasks in bulk, directly responding to the community's request. It's offered at no cost for all company sizes, and functions immediately after installation.
