# Get a screenshot at a timestamp

> Extracts a still frame of the recording at the given timestamp and returns a presigned URL to the image. If `is_screenshot_ready` is `false`, the recording's downloadable video is not up to date yet — call `POST /recordings/{id}/trigger-mp4` to regenerate it, then retry.

<Info>Replace `{your-subdomain}` with your workspace's subdomain. <br /> Learn how to find your subdomain in [Workspace subdomain](/api/workspace-subdomain).</Info>
