crawlbase_screenshot

Pack: crawlbase · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/crawlbase/mcp

Capture a screenshot of a rendered web page via Crawlbase (headless browser + rotating proxies, anti-bot bypass). Returns a stored screenshot_url (JPEG, link expires after about one hour) plus crawl metadata. Requires your Crawlbase JavaScript token as _apiKey — screenshots always render in a real browser. Captures the full page by default; pass mode:“viewport” with width/height to constrain. Example: crawlbase_screenshot({ url: “https://example.com”, _apiKey: “your-js-token” })
