Tip: Linking to a screenshot versus uploading a screenshot

We’ve been trained over the years to upload static product images to our Marketing and Support systems using things like drag-and-drop or file explorer. This may serve an immediate need, but it means we are now stuck with a static product image that will slowly grow outdated as inevitable product updates occur. Embedding a link to your screenshots allows you to move beyond static images, and creates a live link back to our automated screenshot platform. Your product images can now be updated automatically and without the need to manually drag-and-drop new screenshots into a help center article every time a product update is made.
