What are ShareX actions?

After the capture screen, you can automatically run configured actions to post-process captures. This is accomplished by running third-party applications using CLI arguments and passing the file path of the captured file.

How to use ShareX actions?

  • Open Task settings window.
  • Choose the Actions tab and click the Add button.
  • Choose the File path of the third-party application.
  • Fill Arguments and Output file name extension using the examples listed at the bottom.
  • Check the Hidden window option.
  • Click the OK button.
  • Make sure the checkbox for the recently added action is checked.
  • Close the Task settings window.
  • In the Main window, make sure both After capture tasks -> Save image to file and After capture tasks -> Perform actions options are checked.

Example actions

{% for action in site.data.actions %}

{{ action.name }}

File name: {% if action.link %}[{{ action.filename }}]({{ action.link }}){% else %}{{ action.filename }}{% endif %} {% if action.extension %} Output file name extension: {{ action.extension }} {% endif %} Arguments:

{{ action.arguments }}

{% endfor %}
