# Loading a snapshot

2. On the IFX page, select **Snapshots**.
3. On the files page, select a snapshot.
4. On the snapshot information page, select **Load**.
5. In the **Load IFX Snapshot** window, turn on the **Load in original location** toggle to switch Location to the one in which the snapshot was saved. Turn off the toggle to load the snapshot in your current Location.
6. Select **Load**.
7. Place the snapshot in the scene.

{% hint style="info" %}
When you are positioning a snapshot, its object bubble is visible. Note its position relative to the group of objects in case you want to move or otherwise modify the snapshot. If you can't find the object bubble when you want to use it, see [Finding an object bubble](/engage/advanced-features/modifying-objects/finding-an-object-bubble.md).
{% endhint %}

After you place the snapshot, it becomes an object in the Session. For more information about how to modify the snapshot, see [Modifying objects](/engage/advanced-features/modifying-objects.md).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.engagevr.io/engage/advanced-features/snapshots/loading-a-snapshot.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
