“Take Screenshot” and multiple displays​

I have an external display connected to my MacBook Pro, and I’d like to use the Automator “Take Screenshot” action to take screenshots of both. (What I want is similar to what happens when I press command-shift-3 – two files.) I can’t find a way to do this. Despite unchecking “Main Monitor Only”, I only get one file of output.

How would I configure Take Screenshot to take screenshots of both displays? Otherwise, is there an easy workaround? My current workaround is to use the screencapture command in a shell script.
