Hi, Community
The purpose is to capture a screen of the target application and save it to the local device as an image file.
Can anyone let me know how to save the data item of image as the image file in a local device? or
Is there any alternative way?
1) The element is spied using the region mode.

2) and then, read to the data item using "Read Image" action.

Best regards

Hi @HongJooChoi,
There are a few ways you can do this. If you've already captured the screenshot in an Image data item you can use the Utility - File Management VBO to write the binary data to a file using the Write Binary Data action. Alternatively, there are some VBOs that can be used specifically for creating and saving screenshots. Check my response to the following thread for details.
