# snapshot: snapshot the current state of the device
## Overview
`snapshot` is a tool that allows developers to snapshot the current state of
their device and typically attach its output zip file on the host to issues they
file.
## Invoking the target program from the host
### In-tree
To invoke `snapshot` in-tree, you can simply run:
```sh
(host)$ fx snapshot
```
This will output to stdout the path to the generated zip file.
### Out-of-tree
To invoke `snapshot` out-of-tree, you need to SSH into the target and run the
target program `snapshot`, which will dump the zip file into stdout.
```sh
(host)$ <SSH into the target and run `snapshot` on target> > /some/host/path/to/snapshot.zip
```
