Capture a screenshot with Screendesk and share a single link.

Screendesk attaches the technical context engineers need to debug quickly.

### Technical diagnostics included

When you capture a screenshot, Screendesk auto-includes:

### Capture a full screenshot

Click once on the page to capture the visible viewport.

### Capture a cropped screenshot

Click and drag to crop an area of the screen.

For cropped captures, Screendesk can also include a full screenshot.

It shows next to the crop in the shared link. This gives engineers the surrounding context.

If you don’t want the full screenshot included, turn it off in the capture draft before you select **Create**.

### Annotations

After capture, add annotations like drawings, shapes, arrows, and text.
