2. Starting a workflow capture with a video - it will auto-add a start screen
3. Ending a workflow capture with a video - it will auto add an end screen

&#x20;Actions that trigger a video recording:

1. Dragging/drag-and-drop
2. Scrolling vertically or horizontally
3. Inputting text\
   ​

&#x20;Actions that terminate workflow capture:

1. Resizing the window
2. Changing browser tabs
3. Detaching browser tabs
4. Removing the pinned ‘capture’ tab *(far left tab)…*&#x4F;R..the tab itself being recorded
5. Reaching max of 100 media items *(media items = screens and videos)*
6. Navigation to a new domain and declining permission popup *(new domain = going from* [*`tourial.com`*](http://tourial.co/) -> [*`clickup.com`*](http://clickup.com/)*)*<br>

3\) Once you're done, click the extension icon and select Save & complete

4\) Your captured workflow pages will appear in your Tour where you can rename them

### <mark style="color:purple;">Using Manual Media Capture</mark> <a href="#h_99a781f29d" id="h_99a781f29d"></a>

1. After you've logged into Tourial, click *Manually take screenshots and videos.*

2. Your window should automatically resize. You can also select Resize window. Your browser window will resize to the correct dimensions for your Tour. Leave your window at this size.

   \
   \&#xNAN;***​Note:*** If you change your browser size and need to resize it again, simply click on Resize window in the upper right of the extension pop-up.

3. There are two options for manual capture - Capture screen and Start video capture.
   1. It also comes with default hotkeys (shift+cmd+7 for screen capture and shift+cmd+8 for video recording start/stop)
   2. If you do not see these hotkeys, you can manually set and/or customize them (sometimes another extension tool may be using the default hotkey already).
   3. Go to [chrome://extensions/shortcuts](https://intercom.help/tourial/en/articles/5915462-the-tourial-chrome-extension) to set keyboard shortcuts.

4. To take a single screenshot, select Capture screen or press your hotkeys. You'll see a 3-second countdown on your screen and then once the image is captured you'll notice a number badge on the extension icon.\
   ​

5. Name your screen. Continue capturing screens as needed and naming each.

6. You can also edit text on a screen before taking the screen capture. Toggle on Edit mode, then edit whatever text you need. When you're done, capture the screen!

8. Once you're done with your video, click on the extension icon and select End video capture or use the default/customized hotkey.\

9. After you have your screens and video, click Save and complete. Your screens will be added to your Storyboard in your newly created or selected Tour.\
   \
   \&#xNAN;***Note:*** You may also screen capture an entire page using the Scrolling capture feature under More options. Avoid scrolling or moving your mouse pointer while capturing the full page in order to get the best result.

## Troubleshooting the Chrome Extension <a href="#h_51d0b0255d" id="h_51d0b0255d"></a>

1. Ensure your Chrome Extension is updated to the latest version
2. Ensure your Tourial Extension is updated to the latest version
   1. Don't know what Tourial Extension Version you are on?
      1. Go to your Chrome Extensions Manager (chrome://extensions/) and Click on Developer Mode
   2. How to verify what the latest Tourial Extension Version is?
      1. [Navigate here](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/tourial-extension/bgnjlhcgomfmcohochohgmplhfeipjob?authuser=0\&hl=en\&pli=1#:~:text=Version,3.7.3) to find out (scroll down to the 'Details' section

### Still having trouble? Try these additional steps. <a href="#h_39f915c4ac" id="h_39f915c4ac"></a>

1. Log out of app.tourial.com and close the extension
   1. This will reset the extension to its starting state. Then, reopen the extension and log back into Tourial to continue using it.
2. Close any additional tabs. Chrome works best with fewer tabs open. For the best experience, only have the tabs you need for your current task open in your Chrome window. This can help prevent the extension from freezing or slowing down.
