Hey everyone,
I think the subject title says it all. I am creating a process in which I am trying to take a screenshot from a website. However, I am not quiet sure as to which procedure I should take in order to do this as there does not seem to be any easy way to do is.
Does any of you have a good approach to this?
Thanks!
Best,
Anders

Hi Anders
We have built a business object where we open a new Word document and paste the screenshot into the word document, and we then save it as PDF in a fileshare. I realise that it is not saved in BluePrism as you requested, but maybe you can use part of the approach anyway.
Also we are looking into getting a tool like ObserveIT which will take black/white screenshots during runtime - so if the purpose of the screenshot is to investigate errors, that might also be something to look into.
Best regards

Hi there,
There are possibly two approaches:
1. You can try and create object sending keys simulating pressing PrintScreen keyboard button and after that you can paste the screenshot by pressing CTRL+V.
2. Create a object with code block, making screenshot and saving it as a file on harddrive, so you can try and insert into any document you would like to.

Most obvious is to use a VBO that takes screenshot and saves them somewhere.
You can probably store it as binary data in a queue or database for example, but that is not the best idea.
