When you remember sharing a screenshot or document but not where it went, ask an agent to search the conversations you authorize and surface the original evidence with the exact detail you need.

Replace the [brackets] with your details, then paste this into your assistant.
I need information from a document or screenshot I previously shared in a chat. I remember [clues, approximate date and topic], and I need [specific fact or document] for [current task]. You may search [named conversations or exports]; do not look outside that scope.
Search likely messages and attachments, including screenshots. Show the closest matches with the conversation date, source message or attachment link when available, and why each may be the right document. Read the relevant text from the original image or file and quote only the short part needed to confirm the match. Distinguish what the source actually says from your interpretation, and flag blurry text, cropped pages, superseded versions or conflicting details. Do not guess a missing number or date.
Give me a concise handoff: the confirmed facts I need now, the original source reference, what I should verify in the full document, and any question the document cannot answer. If you lack access to old chats or attachments, tell me which export, screenshot or search term to provide. Do not share the document or my chat history with anyone else.

What the result could look like
Illustrative: the car-repair screenshot
A person recalls posting a screenshot of a service document before a repair visit. The agent points to the dated message and reads the relevant line, while asking the person to check the full document before relying on a cropped image.
Illustrative example. This is not an observed result or a verified recommendation.
