Hello,

An awesome enhancement to SIEM would be the ability to paste screenshots in the created cases. Although the timeline is a handy thing, a quick screenshot makes things a lot more clear. Is this a feature that would be doable to add to Elastic SIEM? Let me know and I'd be happy to create a feature request.

Grtz

Willem

Hi @willemdh  
FWIW, you can do it right now.. we just do not offer image hosting in Kibana SIEM (yet). If you host the image elsewhere, you can use [Markdown image formatting](https://www.xaprb.com/blog/how-to-style-images-with-markdown/) to insert it in the Kibana case. For example:

`![]((https://i.ibb.co/8mGL8fv/Screen-Shot-2020-10-19-at-1-03-36-PM.png)`

@stephmilovic Thanks for your answer. Because I'm not really looking forward to having to setup my own image hosting webserver (also need authentication and authorization), I created GH feature request [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/81109](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/81109)

Thank you so much for submitting the feature request @willemdh . I will make sure this gets in front of our product manager to get prioritized.
