I am new to android development and Kotlin. I am trying to implement a feature that takes a screenshot when there is an issue in the application and uploads the screenshot to a server. I am currently writing a function that uses DrawingCache and saves the view to a bitmap image. Other than this approach, is there a better way to do this? I was wondering whether there is a way to use the Android OS level screenshot capturing mechanism for this?

No. You should only have a screen of your own views, and not other apps nor system status bar. If that is possible, it is a security issue with Android and Google should forbid it.
