Example with sample data: select exactly one recording to make Append to guide available. Choose the target guide and insertion options in the next dialog.

Open the target guide and confirm the content you intend to extend. Prepare a short recording of the missing task. Appending creates a new result from the selected guide version; newer results remain in history.

Append a saved capture or video

  1. Choose Append in the editor header.
  2. In Append from capture or video, set Insert after step. Choose Before first step if the new segment should come first.
  3. For a saved recording, choose it under Existing capture → Capture, then choose Append capture.
  4. For a local file, choose Video file under Upload video, then choose Upload and append.
  5. Wait for Append complete. Review the new block of steps at the selected position and check its transition to the surrounding instructions.

Expected result

New generated steps are inserted as one block after the selected step. Existing steps keep their relative order.

Record another segment

In the same Append dialog, choose Open recorder under Record more. Complete the extension recording and its submission flow with the intended project and insertion point. Return to the guide to verify the appended result.

Remove an appended segment

Open Source in the right panel, then Segments, and inspect the recording segment. Where Remove appended steps is enabled, review the segment label and affected steps in the confirmation before confirming. A disabled removal action may mean the source relationship cannot be verified.

Important

Remove appended steps changes the guide. It is separate from deleting the original recording.
