Screenshot API — Practical Guide

A comprehensive guide to the Screenshot API: capture URLs and HTML as images or PDFs; process bulk batches; schedule recurring captures with visual change detection; and compare screenshots with pixel-level diffs.

Last updated: 07 mar. 2026, 11:14 API Version: v1 Burst: 20 req/s Latency: 4164.3 ms Cost: 0.05 credits/req

#What the Screenshot API does

The Screenshot API turns any URL or HTML into a high-quality image or PDF. It handles viewport emulation, device presets, ad/cookie blocking, CSS/JS injection, watermarks, and more — so you don't have to manage browser infrastructure yourself.

20+ device presets — iPhone, iPad, Pixel, Galaxy, MacBook, desktop resolutions.
Sync & async modes — get results immediately or queue jobs and poll for status.
Visual monitoring — schedule captures and get email alerts when pages change visually.
Webhooks — receive POST notifications when async jobs complete.

#Endpoints & actions

Endpoint	Description
`capture`	URL screenshot (PNG/JPG/WebP) with device emulation, blocking, watermarks.
`capture-html`	Render custom HTML as an image.
`capture-pdf`	Generate PDF from URL or HTML with page settings.
`bulk`	Capture multiple URLs (up to 50) in one request.
`schedule-*`	Create/update/delete/list/run scheduled captures.

  -d "url=https://example.com&async=true&webhook_url=https://yoursite.com/webhook"

# Response: {"success":true,"job_id":12345,"status":"queued"}
# Your webhook will receive a POST when the job completes.

#Key parameters explained

#Viewport & device

viewport_width / viewport_height — Set exact dimensions (320-3840 x 200-2160).
device — Use a preset like iphone-15 to auto-set viewport, pixel density, and user agent. Overrides manual viewport settings.
full_page — Capture the entire scrollable page, not just the visible viewport. Adds 0.03 credits.
retina — Render at 2x pixel density for sharp images. Adds 0.03 credits.

#Blocking options

block_ads — Blocks requests to known ad networks (Google Ads, DoubleClick, etc.).
block_cookie_banners — Removes common cookie consent overlays (OneTrust, CookieBot, etc.).
block_chat_widgets — Hides Intercom, Drift, Zendesk, and other chat widgets.
block_tracking — Blocks analytics and tracking scripts (Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, etc.).

#Element targeting

selector — Capture only a specific CSS element (e.g. #hero-section).
click_selectors — Click elements before capture (accept cookies, close popups).
blur_selectors — Apply CSS blur to sensitive content.
remove_selectors — Remove elements entirely from the DOM.

#Output format

Images: png (default, lossless), jpg (smaller), webp (best compression).
Documents: pdf — with page format, orientation, margins, headers/footers.
quality — 1-100 for JPG/WebP (default: 80). Higher = larger file, better quality.
thumbnail_width — Auto-generate a thumbnail (50-800px wide).

#Async mode & webhooks

For heavy operations (bulk jobs, PDF generation), use async=true to queue the job. You have two options to get the result:

Polling: Call /status with the job_id every 2-5 seconds until status is completed or failed.
Webhook: Set webhook_url and your server will receive a POST with the full result when the job finishes. Includes retry logic (3 attempts).

// Webhook payload example
{
  "event": "screenshot.completed",
  "job_id": 12345,
  "status": "completed",
  "url": "https://cdn.yeb.to/.../screenshot.png",
  "file_size": 245678,
  "timestamp": "2026-02-06T12:00:03Z"
}

#Bulk screenshot processing

Send up to 50 URLs in a single /bulk request. Each URL can have individual settings, plus you can set default_settings applied to all. URLs are processed in parallel.

curl -s -X POST "https://pdfbuilder.yeb.to/v1/screenshot/bulk" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "urls": [
      {"url": "https://site1.com", "device": "iphone-15"},
      {"url": "https://site2.com", "format": "jpg", "quality": 90},
      {"url": "https://site3.com"}
    ],
    "default_settings": {
      "block_ads": true,
      "full_page": true
    }
  }'

#Scheduled captures & visual monitoring

Create automated schedules to capture pages at any frequency. Enable change detection to compare each capture with the previous one. When the visual difference exceeds your threshold, you get an email alert.

curl -s -X POST "https://pdfbuilder.yeb.to/v1/screenshot/schedule-create" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Daily Homepage Check",
    "url": "https://mysite.com",
    "cron_expression": "daily",
    "timezone": "Europe/Sofia",
    "detect_changes": true,
    "change_threshold": 5.0,
    "notify_on_change": true,
    "notify_email": "[email protected]",
    "screenshot_settings": {
      "full_page": true,
      "block_ads": true
    }
  }'

#Visual diff comparison

Compare any two completed screenshot jobs. The API generates a diff image highlighting changed pixels in red, and returns the difference percentage and bounding boxes of changed regions.

difference_percent — 0.00 means identical, 100.00 means completely different.
diff_regions — Array of {x, y, width, height} bounding boxes for changed areas.
diff_image_url — A PNG overlay showing changes in red against a dimmed background.

#Credit pricing breakdown

Each action has a base credit cost. Modifiers like full_page, retina, and 4K viewports add to the base. Check the endpoint documentation for exact pricing. Status, device list, and schedule list endpoints are free.

#Troubleshooting & tips

Timeouts: Increase timeout_ms for slow pages (max 60000). Use delay_ms to wait for lazy-loaded content.
Blank screenshots: Some SPAs need delay_ms=2000 or more. Try lazy_load=true for infinite scroll pages.
Cookie walls: Use click_selectors=["#accept-cookies"] to auto-accept consent dialogs before capture.
Large pages: Full-page captures of very long pages may take 10+ seconds. Use async=true for reliability.
Watermarks: Add text watermarks via the watermark parameter with custom position and opacity.
Rate limits: Default burst is 10 req/s. For bulk operations, use the /bulk endpoint instead of parallel single requests.

Întrebări frecvente

Puteți captura capturi de ecran ca PNG, JPG sau WebP. Generarea PDF acceptă A4, A3, Letter și Legal cu margini, anteturi și subsoluri personalizate.

Când full_page este activat, browserul derulează până la sfârșitul paginii și capturează întreaga înălțime a documentului. Pentru pagini cu conținut încărcat lazy, combinați cu lazy_load=true pentru ca imaginile și elementele să fie declanșate în timpul derulării.

Da. Transmiteți un preset de dispozitiv (ex. iphone-15, ipad-pro-12.9, galaxy-s24-ultra) și API-ul setează automat viewport-ul, densitatea de pixeli și user agent-ul corecte. Folosiți endpoint-ul /devices pentru a lista toate preseturile.

Puteți bloca reclame, bannere de consimțământ cookie, widgeturi de chat, scripturi de urmărire, JavaScript, CSS, imagini, media și fonturi. Puteți furniza și modele URL personalizate pentru a bloca resurse specifice.

O singură cerere în masă acceptă până la 50 de URL-uri. Fiecare URL este procesată în paralel și puteți interoga endpoint-ul bulk-status sau seta un webhook pentru a fi notificat când toate capturile sunt finalizate.

Creați un program cu o frecvență (orar, zilnic, săptămânal etc.). API-ul rulează captura automat și poate compara rulările consecutive pentru a detecta modificări vizuale peste un prag configurabil.

Endpoint-ul diff compară două capturi de ecran pixel cu pixel și returnează procentul de diferență, numărul de pixeli modificați, regiunile afectate și o imagine de diferențe evidențiată. Combinați cu programări pentru monitorizarea automată a regresiei vizuale.

Fiecare acțiune are un cost de bază în credite. Modificatorii precum full_page, retina și 4K se adaugă la costul de bază. Endpoint-urile de stare, lista dispozitivelor și lista programărilor sunt gratuite. Consultați documentația endpoint-urilor pentru valori exacte.

Implicit, capturile rulează sincron și returnează rezultatul direct. Setați async=true pentru a pune sarcina în coadă și a primi un job_id imediat. Interogați endpoint-ul /status sau furnizați un webhook_url pentru a fi notificat când captura este gata.

Da. Fiecare cerere, chiar și cele care rezultă în erori, consumă credite. Creditele tale sunt legate de numărul de cereri, indiferent de succes sau eșec. Dacă eroarea este clar cauzată de o problemă a platformei din partea noastră, vom restaura creditele afectate (fără rambursări în numerar).

Contactați-ne la [email protected]. Luăm feedback-ul în serios—dacă raportul de bug sau cererea de funcționalitate este semnificativă, putem repara sau îmbunătăți API-ul rapid și vă acordăm 50 de credite gratuite ca mulțumire.

Depinde de API și uneori chiar de endpoint. Unele endpoint-uri folosesc date din surse externe, care pot avea limite mai stricte. De asemenea, aplicăm limite pentru a preveni abuzul și a menține platforma stabilă. Verificați documentația pentru limita specifică a fiecărui endpoint.

Funcționăm pe un sistem de credite. Creditele sunt unități preplătite, nerambursabile, pe care le cheltuiți pe apeluri API și instrumente. Creditele sunt consumate FIFO (cele mai vechi mai întâi) și sunt valabile 12 luni de la data achiziției. Panoul de control afișează fiecare dată de achiziție și expirarea sa.

Da. Toate creditele achiziționate (inclusiv soldurile fracționare) sunt valabile 12 luni de la achiziție. Creditele neutilizate expiră automat și sunt șterse permanent la sfârșitul perioadei de valabilitate. Creditele expirate nu pot fi restaurate sau convertite în numerar sau altă valoare. Regulă tranzitorie: creditele cumpărate înainte de 22 sept. 2025 sunt tratate ca achiziționate pe 22 sept. 2025 și expiră pe 22 sept. 2026 (cu excepția cazului în care a fost indicată o expirare anterioară la achiziție).

Da—în cadrul perioadei de valabilitate. Creditele neutilizate rămân disponibile și se transferă din lună în lună până expiră la 12 luni de la achiziție.

Creditele sunt nerambursabile. Cumpărați doar ce aveți nevoie—puteți oricând reîncărca mai târziu. Dacă o eroare a platformei cauzează o debitare eșuată, putem restaura creditele afectate după investigare. Fără rambursări în numerar.

Prețurile sunt stabilite în credite, nu în dolari. Fiecare endpoint are propriul cost—vedeți insigna „Credite / cerere" de mai sus. Veți ști întotdeauna exact cât cheltuiți.
