Give it a list of web pages (or your own HTML) and get back screenshots (PNG, JPEG) or PDFs as direct file links. Built on a real Chrome browser, so JavaScript-heavy pages render properly.

What you can do

  • Screenshot a list of URLs: full page or just the first screen, at any size from phone to 4K.
  • Make PDFs of web pages: A4, Letter, Legal or A3, portrait or landscape, with backgrounds.
  • Turn your own HTML into a PDF: invoices, reports, certificates, tickets. Paste the HTML in the input or send it through the API.
  • Mobile and dark-mode captures: narrow viewport, touch and mobile user agent, prefers-color-scheme: dark.
  • Clean captures: common cookie banners and chat widgets are hidden by default.
  • Capture one element: pass a CSS selector such as #chart to crop to it.
  • Wait for slow pages: wait for the network to go quiet, for an element to appear, or for a fixed extra delay.

Output

One row per page in the dataset:

FieldExample
urlhttps://example.com/
statusok, failed or skipped
fileUrldirect link to the PNG, JPEG or PDF
fileSizebytes
titlethe page title
httpStatus200
errorthe reason, when a capture failed

The files themselves sit in the run's key-value store as capture-0001.png, capture-0002.png...

Pricing

$0.004 per capture ($4 per 1,000). You are only charged for captures that succeed. Failed pages, skipped inputs and blocked addresses are free. No start fee.

Good to know

  • Pages behind a login or paywall are captured as a visitor would see them. You can send extra request headers (for example a language) but there is no cookie or login support yet.
  • Very long pages are cut at 16,000 pixels high.
  • For safety the Actor refuses private and local addresses (localhost, 10.x, 192.168.x, cloud metadata addresses), including links a page tries to load from them.
  • Some sites detect and block automated browsers. Those show up as failed rows with the reason.
  • You are responsible for having the right to capture the pages you submit and for how you use the images.

Use it from code

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/<username>~screenshot-pdf/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<TOKEN>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"urls":["https://example.com"],"format":"pdf"}'

HTML to PDF: send {"html":"<h1>Invoice 42</h1>","format":"pdf"} and read fileUrl from the result.
