# Screenshot

Capture the screen of the device and save it to the computer.

Screenshot is the action of capturing the screen of a mobile device and saving the image file to the computer.

#### Explanation of configuration parameters:

* Output path: The folder on the computer to save the image, for example `D:\img`.
* File name: The name of the image file, for example `screenshot_1.jpg`.
* Crop area (x,y,w,h): (optional) The cropping area of the image according to `x,y,w,h` — the coordinates of the top-left corner (x,y) along with the width (w) and height (h). Leave blank if you want to capture the entire screen.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.gpmautomate.com/automate-en/action-guide/phone-action/screenshot.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
