`crawlbase_screenshot`

Pack: crawlbase · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/crawlbase_screenshot for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

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” })

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`url`	string	yes	The absolute URL of the page to screenshot, e.g. “https://example.com”
`mode`	string	no	Capture mode: full rendered page by default; “viewport” captures only the visible area (pair with width/height).
`width`	number	no	Viewport width in pixels (only applies with mode:“viewport”).
`height`	number	no	Viewport height in pixels (only applies with mode:“viewport”).
`country`	string	no	Two-letter ISO country code to route through, e.g. “US”, “GB”.
`page_wait`	number	no	Milliseconds to wait after page load before capturing — gives animations/JS time to settle.
`scroll`	boolean	no	Scroll the page before capture to trigger lazy-loaded content.
`_apiKey`	string	yes	Your Crawlbase JavaScript token (screenshots require browser rendering). Free tier at https://crawlbase.com
