ShareX & XerahS

Snipp gives you a ready-made uploader config, so connecting ShareX on Windows or XerahS on macOS takes about a minute. No manual editing required.

Install the app

  • On Windows, download ShareX from getsharex.com and install it.

  • On macOS, download XerahS from xerahs.com, the macOS equivalent.

Download your config

  • Open your Console settings and create an API key if you don't have one yet.

  • Click the download button to save a Snipp.sxcu config file. It works for both ShareX and XerahS.

  • The file already has your API key, upload endpoint, and link format baked in, so there's nothing to edit by hand.

Import it

  • Double-click the downloaded Snipp.sxcu file. The app opens and asks to import it.

  • Confirm the import. Snipp now appears in your list of custom uploaders.

  • The config sets Snipp as your active image and file destination automatically.

Take your first screenshot

  • Use your capture hotkey, the default is Print Screen on Windows, to grab a region or window.

  • The screenshot uploads to Snipp and the share link is copied to your clipboard right away.

  • You can also drag any file onto the app's tray icon to upload it the same way.

If something's off

  • Regenerated your API key? Download a fresh config and re-import it, the old one stops working.

  • Uploads going somewhere else? Set Snipp as the active destination in the app's destination settings.

  • Getting a limit error? You may have hit your weekly upload quota.
