Overview

Narada can capture screenshots throughout your automation workflow, providing visual documentation of each significant step in the automation process. This is invaluable for debugging, compliance reporting, and understanding automation behavior. You just need to add the saveScreenshots: true parameter to your Remote Dispatch request.

{
  "prompt": "/Operator navigate to dashboard and extract user count",
  "sessionId": "your-session-id",
  "clearChat": true,
  "saveScreenshot": true
}

Screenshots are automatically compiled into an animated GIF showing the complete automation trajectory, making it easy to review the entire workflow at a glance.

​
How to Enable Screenshots

Please watch the following demo to see how screenshots work in practice:

1

Add Screenshot Parameter

Include saveScreenshots: true in your Remote Dispatch request:

{
  "prompt": "/Operator navigate to dashboard and extract user count",
  "sessionId": "your-session-id",
  "saveScreenshots": true
}

See the Remote Dispatch API Reference for complete request structure details.

2

Automatic Directory Creation

Narada automatically creates a directory structure for your screenshots:

  1. Main Directory: Narada Downloads in your machine’s Downloads folder
  2. Request Directory: Directory named after your requestId from the Remote Dispatch response
  3. File: Screenshot automation saved as an animated .gif file

If the Narada Downloads directory doesn’t exist, it will be created automatically.

Find Your Screenshot File

Navigate to your Downloads folder and look for:

Downloads/
└── Narada Downloads/
    └── req_abc123def456/
        └── automation_recording.gif

Each screenshot request gets its own directory named after the requestId for easy correlation with your API calls.
