Download ShareX 12.4.1

Version 12.4.1 of ShareX has been released. With this open source program, both static and moving images can be captured, after which various operations can be applied. When you are satisfied with the result it can be carried out to about eighty destinations, such as Flickr, Pastebin, Dropbox, Google Drive, Amazon S3, and Streamable. The functionality can also be further expanded with self-written upload modules to adjust this part to your own liking. The changelog for this release can be found below:

Changes in ShareX version 12.4.1:

• Added screenshot delay shortcut to main window and tray capture menu
• Added white ShareX icon option to “Application settings window -> Advanced tab”
• Custom uploader related changes:
  • Moved custom uploader settings to its own window in the destinations menu to make it easier to access
  • Added request, response and test tabs to create more space
  • Added “Parameters” option which will be used to generate URL query string
    • If the request URL contains a query string then it will be automatically converted to parameters for backward compatibility, and the query string will be removed from the request URL
  • Added request “Body” option with these options:
    • no body
    • Form data (multipart/form data)
    • Form URL encoded (application/x-www-form-urlencoded)
    • JSON(application/json)
    • XML (application/xml)
    • binary
  • For backward compatibility: if request method is POST then body will be set as “Form data”, for rest of request methods “No body” will be set; if “No body” is selected then all arguments will be moved to parameters

  • Added $header:name$ syntax, it can be used to get specific response header value
    • For backward compatibility: if location header response type is used previously then $header:location$ syntax will be added to URL field automatically, but unfortunately automatic conversion of headers response type won’t be possible therefore warning text about it gonna be added to URL field
