# Script recording

To simplify scripting, Astro Studio has a feature for recording user actions. There are three recorders available:

* Web recorder
* Desktop recorder
* Universal recorder

To start recording, select the desired option in the Process menu or in the Record menu of the Actions panel.

![](/files/ywfbqbE88meDZSKzQ9NK) The "Stop" button completes recording and forms a sequence of recorded elements in the current script.

To delete the action chose it in the list of recorded actions and press the Delete button on the keyboard.

Let us use Universal recorder to record a simple sequence:

* Click on Calculator application
* Click "5 x 3 ="
* Click on the result screen

Then pause the recording. Universal recorder has captured all these actions:

Web interactions are recorded in a similar way.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://astro-rpa.gitbook.io/astro-rpa-user-guide/astro-studio/recording.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
