Fluxshot is a Chrome extension built for teams that use Redmine. Capture any part of your screen, annotate it with arrows, text, and highlights, then send it directly to Redmine as a new issue or an attachment on an existing one — without switching tools or describing what you can simply show.
Without a built-in capture tool, bug reporting and feedback loops are slower than they need to be. Developers receive text descriptions of visual bugs that take three messages to understand because no screenshot was attached. Screenshots taken with system tools require manual upload to Redmine, which adds extra steps and loses the page context that explains what was happening at the time. No annotation capability means marking the exact problem area requires a separate image editor that most team members do not keep open. UI bugs get deprioritized because the effort to reproduce from a text description is too high — and the issue sits unresolved while the developer asks for more information.
Fluxshot is a Chrome browser extension built by Redmineflux to bring visual bug reporting directly into your Redmine workflow. Capture a full page, selected region, or browser viewport from any tab, annotate it with arrows and text, then submit directly to Redmine as a new issue or attachment — with page URL, browser version, and timestamp attached automatically. No separate tool. No upload step.
Fluxshot removes the gap between seeing a problem and reporting it. Every capture goes directly into Redmine with the full context of the page — URL, browser, timestamp — attached automatically. The developer who picks up the issue sees exactly what the reporter saw, with the problem area already marked. Fewer clarification rounds. Faster resolution. Teams using the Test Case Management Plugin can attach annotated screenshots directly to failing test issues for immediate developer handoff.
Capture and submit to Redmine in under 30 seconds from any browser tab. There is no save step, no navigate step, and no separate upload — the screenshot goes directly to Redmine with one click from inside the extension.
Mark arrows, add text labels, draw shapes, and highlight regions directly inside the extension. The problem area is marked before submission, so developers do not need to ask where to look.
URL, browser version, and timestamp are attached to every submission automatically. The developer receives the visual and the technical context together — without the reporter needing to type them manually.
Capture, annotate, and submit without leaving the page being tested. Teams running structured QA through the Checklist Plugin can attach captures to checklist step comments without losing their place in the test queue.
Developers who receive annotated screenshots resolve issues faster because the problem is visible, not described. Fewer back-and-forth comment cycles mean the issue moves to resolved sooner.

Does Fluxshot work with self-hosted Redmine instances?
Yes. Fluxshot connects to any Redmine instance — self-hosted or cloud — via the Redmine REST API. Enter your Redmine instance URL and an API key in the extension settings. No server-side plugin installation is required on the Redmine side.
Can I attach a screenshot to an existing Redmine issue instead of creating a new one?
Yes. After annotating your capture, Fluxshot gives you the option to create a new issue or attach to an existing one. Search by issue ID or title from within the extension, and the screenshot is attached to the existing issue immediately — no new issue is created.
Does the extension capture sensitive information automatically?
Fluxshot captures the visible content of the page you are on. For pages with sensitive data, use the built-in blur annotation tool to mask fields before submission. Automatic context metadata — URL, browser, timestamp — does not include credentials, session data, or form field content.
Is Fluxshot available for browsers other than Chrome?
Fluxshot is currently available as a Chrome extension and works in any Chromium-based browser including Microsoft Edge and Brave. A Firefox version is in the product roadmap. Check the Fluxshot product page for the current list of supported browsers.
