# Snapshot
<Class id="qiskit.pulse.instructions.Snapshot" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/1.2/qiskit/pulse/instructions/snapshot.py#L23-L80" signature="qiskit.pulse.instructions.Snapshot(label, snapshot_type='statevector', name=None)" modifiers="class">
Bases: [`Instruction`](pulse#qiskit.pulse.instructions.Instruction "qiskit.pulse.instructions.instruction.Instruction")
An instruction targeted for simulators, to capture a moment in the simulation.
Create new snapshot.
**Parameters**
* **label** ([*str*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.13)")) Snapshot label which is used to identify the snapshot in the output.
* **snapshot\_type** ([*str*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.13)")) Type of snapshot, e.g., “state” (take a snapshot of the quantum state). The types of snapshots offered are defined by the simulator used.
* **name** ([*str*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.13)") *| None*) Snapshot name which defaults to `label`. This parameter is only for display purposes and is not taken into account during comparison.
