# Sharing Maps

JMap allows you to create and share map images. You can copy a map to the clipboard and paste it into another application, send a map by email or save an image of the map in a file. These functions are accessed via the map's pop-up menu (right-click on the map).

## Copying a Map to the Clipboard

You can copy a map to the clipboard and paste it to another application (word processor, presentation software, email, etc.). Access the pop-up menu by right-clicking on the map and selecting **Share... -> Copy to clipboard**. Afterwards, you can use the **Paste** function in the application that will receive the image.

## Saving a Map Image

You can save a map image in a file. Use the pop-up menu by right-clicking on the map and selecting **Share... -> Save as...**. You must then select a target directory and enter a name for the file.

## Sending a Map by Email

JMap allows you to send an image of a map by email. Use the pop-up menu by right-clicking on the map and choosing **Share... -> Mail this map**. You can select JMap users to whom you wish to send the map or enter the recipients directly in the designated field (use a semicolon (;) to separate addresses). Groups can be used as lists of recipients. The map will be added to the email as an attachment.

## 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-jmapserver-lima.k2geospatial.com/e/applications/jmap-pro-user-guide/tools/collaboration-tools/sharing-maps.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.
