# Screenshot

**Node type:** `screenshot` · **Version:** `1` · **Category:** Browser

Capture viewport, page or element. This node does not declare an external side effect.

## Configuration

| Field              | Type    | Default      | What it controls                                                                                                         |
| ------------------ | ------- | ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `mode`             | string  | `"viewport"` | Screenshot capture area. Values: `viewport`, `full_page`, `element`.                                                     |
| `includeInHistory` | boolean | `true`       | Attach the screenshot artifact to execution history.                                                                     |
| `maximumBytes`     | number  | `10485760`   | Maximum accepted file, response, screenshot, or download size in bytes.                                                  |
| `timeoutMs`        | number  | `30000`      | Maximum time for this operation in milliseconds.                                                                         |
| `locator`          | locator | —            | Recorded locator bundle. sndbox prefers accessible role/name data and retains fallbacks. Shown when `mode` is `element`. |

<Note>History artifacts follow the configured screenshot retention policy.</Note>

## Workflow JSON

The editor stores this node with the following implemented default configuration:

```json title="Default node configuration" theme={"system"}
{
  "type": "screenshot",
  "version": 1,
  "configuration": {
    "mode": "viewport",
    "includeInHistory": true,
    "maximumBytes": 10485760,
    "timeoutMs": 30000
  }
}
```

Values may be entered literally or mapped from an earlier compatible output when the inspector exposes a mapping control. See [Variables and data mapping](/workflows/variables-and-data).

## Inputs

This node has no typed ports in this direction.

## Outputs

| Port   | Type   | Required | Description     |

## Where it can run

* Desktop local runner
* Paired self-hosted runner
* Managed browser worker

## Test and inspect

Use **Test node** in the editor to preview this step with the current configuration. A full run records resolved inputs, outputs, logs, duration, and any artifacts in the execution inspector. Side-effecting or destructive nodes can require an additional confirmation or approved workflow permission.
