# Capture and annotate a screenshot

> Take a visible-area screenshot, redact or annotate it, and publish a focused image report.

## Take a screenshot in the extension

Open the connected extension and choose **Screenshot**. The extension captures the visible browser area, not a full-page scroll. If timing matters, choose **Add description and timing** and select **No delay**, **3 seconds**, or **6 seconds** before the capture.

The composer opens after capture. Use **Select**, **Pen**, **Rectangle**, **Circle**, **Arrow**, **Line**, or **Text** to explain the problem. Use **Redact sensitive area** for pixels you do not want to share, then use **Crop** and **Apply crop** when the surrounding page is irrelevant. Undo and redo are available for annotations and crop changes.

Add a title and description, then choose **Create report**. New screenshots start private in **All captures**. Review the saved image and any surrounding context before creating a share link.

<Warning>
  **Include surrounding context** can preserve the redacted viewport outside the crop. Crop and annotation are presentation tools; inspect the final pixels before sharing.
</Warning>

## Import an image with the CLI

The CLI supports PNG, JPEG and WebP imports:

```bash theme={null}
tekma auth login --scope captures:record
tekma import image ./checkout.png --url https://example.com/checkout --title "Checkout error"
```

The original page URL is required. The CLI keeps the source image bytes and metadata, creates no browser diagnostics, and does not generate video chapters or streaming renditions. Use [privacy guidance](/recording/privacy) when an image contains account or customer data.

## Review and share

Screenshots have no timeline or transcript. They can still carry a title, description, comments, folder and share audience. Choose **With DevTools** only when diagnostic context exists and is useful; an image import cannot reconstruct context that was not captured.
