# Watch Multiple Cameras at Once (Multi-View)
Launch several cameras at the same time.
You can view multiple cameras at the same time from **Video** the page.
Watching multiple cameras can help provide a clearer picture of what's happening at a given time at your location. For example, if you are watching one camera to monitor a theft that occurred at your business, you may want to have multiple cameras displayed at once to ensure you can track the thief as they move through the location.
See the following image for an example of viewing multiple cameras at once:

### How to Display Multiple Cameras: Method 2
If you want to select specific cameras to display at once, follow these steps:

3. A list of available cameras from the selected location or the selected folder appears.
4. Hover over a camera thumbnail in the list and select **Add Camera** to add a camera to the view. You can add up to 6 cameras at once.
**Note:** From the camera list, camera thumbnails that are highlighted (orange border) indicate that the camera is included in the multi-view. See the section below to learn how to delete a camera from the multi-view.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://help.solink.com/docs/watch-and-find-video/manage-cameras/watch-multiple-cameras-at-once-multi-view.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
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.
