Taking Screenshot in citrix automation

Help

Hi,
I am doing citrix automation. I want to take screenshot in the remote machine. when I am using “Take Screenshot” activity, the robot is taking the screenshot of the local machine. How can I take the screenshot in remote machine?

Thanks in advance.

Hey @bhargav29494

You can pass also the screen shot to save it on shared drive but if you wants to take a screen shot inside citrix then what i have tried was to use “The onscreen keyboard utility” .

By using window explorer and type On-Screen Keyboard and hit enter. then by using image click activity click on that particular window ,screenshot you wanna take. then click on “ctrl+alt+prtSC”. and paste it where you wanna save it.

sidenote - after opening the onscreen keyboard please maintain its state. and the window you wants to take screen shot. you can restore windows state by using short key as well.

Regards…!!

hi ,

i dnt see why you can’t able to do with remote desktop bcz i have done the same. For me its working fine .Could you please attach the workflow.you might be missing RDP window(selectors) when screenshot activity is being executing.

I have a similar issue where the screenshot activity works when the remote desktop is open but does not when it is closed or minimized.
