Learn how to take a snapshot of live camera feeds and historical video
Verkada cameras include a snapshot tool that can be very useful for capturing a still image of something happening on a live stream or in a historical video.
The snapshot is automatically downloaded to your device as a .jpg file, which you can open and share. The snapshot includes the camera name, date, and time in the top left corner.
