Real Capture Workflow

CaptureWorks now runs the real backend capture path only. Queue a live session, wait for the worker, then redact the real assets that come back.

  • Step 1: Adjust parameters in the Define Scope sidebar on the left.

  • Step 3: Click Start Live Capture. Watch the worker session progress, then review persisted screenshots and metadata when the queue is populated.
