Can status of 'New' queue item be changed to 'In Progress' using APIs ?
Issue Description: Change status of a queue item from New to In Progress using APIs.
Queue items are supposed to be processed by Robots before changing the status. If the status of a queue Item is changed from New to InProgress, it means that the transaction has been initiated.

Resolution: It is not possible to change the status directly from New to In Progress using APIs. It can be performed indirectly by changing the status by starting a transaction with
- ../odata/Queues/UiPathODataSvc.StartTransaction
which will set the Queue Item to In Progress and return the Queue Item.
