# Film the step your tutorial skipped

> Yes, the Tella Agent can have Auto Capture film one step of your web app and add it to your video. Give it the page's full URL and the timestamp where the step belongs.

## How to do it in Tella

1. Save a demo login under [Settings → Credentials](https://www.tella.tv/settings/credentials) if the step needs a sign-in.
2. Open the tutorial in the Tella editor and open the Tella Agent.
3. Describe the step, the page's full URL and where it belongs.
4. Check the placement, then add narration as an audio file and trim.

## Good to know

- Closed beta on paid plans: email support@tella.com for access. Each take uses your workspace's credits, the same balance the Tella Agent spends.
- Only web pages on public http or https domains can be filmed. Desktop apps, mobile apps and localhost builds can't.
- The agent may reach the feature off camera. If viewers need to see how to get there, say so.
- If a take is almost right, ask for a revision and say what to change. The earlier take stays as it was.

## Questions people ask

### Can I add the missing step from Claude or ChatGPT instead?

Yes. Any AI app connected to Tella's [MCP server](https://www.tella.com/mcp) can start an Auto Capture take. When it's delivered, ask the app to add it to your Tella video, then open the video in Tella to edit it.

### What if the missing step sends an email or places an order?

Tella's Auto Capture undoes any change it can before filming. For one it can't undo, like sending an email, it stops and asks. Reply with a workaround, such as "stop on the confirmation, don't send", and a new take starts.

### Will the new step look like the rest of my screen recording?

Yes. The take is a screen recording with an animated cursor, so you edit it in Tella like any clip: trim it, add zooms, restyle the cursor or change the background to match.
