The term is "summarizing" (or "a summary" / "an abstract" / "a précis").
Definition: summarizing means describing only the most important ideas or main points of a text in a much shorter form.
Note the difference from related tasks: paraphrasing restates the original in roughly the same length with different words; quoting copies exact words; summarizing condenses to the essentials.
