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” })
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 |
