Multimodal Vision¶
Available since IAPM 3D v1.12, Web v3.131, and Studio v0.7
Paste a screenshot into the chat and Tessa will analyze it. No need to describe what you see - just show her.
How to Send Images¶
There are two ways to share images with Tessa:
Clipboard (Ctrl+V)¶
- Copy an image to your clipboard (screenshot, snipping tool, or any image)
- Press Ctrl+V in the Tessa chat panel
- The image appears in the chat as an attachment
- Type your question about the image and send
Commands¶
| Command | What It Does |
|---|---|
/paste | Load image from clipboard and analyze (optionally add a prompt after) |
/paste What does this error mean? | Load clipboard image with a specific question |
/image path/to/file.png | Analyze an image file from disk |
/image screenshot.png What's wrong here? | Analyze a file with a specific question |
Supported Formats¶
PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP, and BMP. Images can be loaded from clipboard, file path, byte stream, or URL.
What Tessa Can Analyze¶
Error Messages and Stack Traces¶
Paste a screenshot of an error dialog, exception, or stack trace. Tessa reads the text, identifies the error, and explains what it means in the context of your system.
Try asking
- "What does this error mean?" (with screenshot pasted)
- "I'm seeing this exception - what should I do?"
- "Is this stack trace related to the issue we were discussing?"
Dashboard Screenshots¶
Share a screenshot from any monitoring tool - Grafana, Azure Monitor, or even IAPM itself. Tessa interprets the visual data and provides analysis.
Try asking
- "What do you see in this dashboard?"
- "Does this graph show anything concerning?"
- "This chart spiked at 2pm - what happened?"
Log Output¶
Paste a screenshot of log output that's hard to copy as text (terminal windows, remote desktop sessions, mobile photos of screens).
Try asking
- "Can you read these logs and tell me what's wrong?"
- "What patterns do you see in this log output?"
Configuration and Code¶
Share snippets of configuration files, code, or infrastructure diagrams for Tessa to review.
Try asking
- "Is there anything wrong with this config?"
- "Does this code look like it could cause the timeout issue?"
Tips for Best Results¶
- Crop to the relevant area - a focused screenshot gives better results than a full desktop capture
- Include context in your question - "What does this error mean?" works, but "This error started appearing after we deployed v2.3 - what does it mean?" works better
- Combine with diagnostics - paste a screenshot and ask Tessa to cross-reference it with live data: "I see this error - is it related to the latency spike on order-service?"
- Use high resolution - Tessa can read small text, but larger and clearer images produce faster, more accurate results
