The direct answer

A screenshot can demonstrate one visible condition, but it may not show the cause or current state. Readers need to know what the image proves.

What to check

Record the page, capture date and relevant observation. Remove private or identifying details and confirm permission before publishing customer material.

What to do next

Explain the specific finding alongside the image. Avoid using a cropped visual as proof of an unseen backend failure or a quantified business impact.

Platform guidance can change. Consult the current official documentation before making platform-specific changes.
