# Screenshot Pro - Website Screenshot API (`psymall/screenshot-pro`) Actor

Capture clean full-page or device-sized screenshots of any website at scale. Auto-closes cookie banners and pop-ups (the #1 complaint about other tools), supports device presets, and returns a public signed image URL. Built for AI agents and automation.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Screenshot Pro — Website Screenshot API

Capture clean screenshots of any web page, in bulk. Full-page or viewport, multiple device sizes, and **automatic cookie-banner dismissal** so your images aren't ruined by consent popups.

### Features

- **Bulk capture** — pass many URLs, get one image per URL.
- **Full-page or viewport** — capture the whole scrollable page or just what's above the fold.
- **Device presets** — Desktop, Desktop HD, Tablet, Mobile.
- **Auto-dismiss popups** — closes common cookie banners and consent dialogs (OneTrust, Cookiebot, Quantcast and generic accept buttons) before capturing.
- **PNG or JPEG** — choose format and JPEG quality.
- **Reliable** — smart wait strategy with a `networkidle → load` fallback, and the run fails loudly if nothing could be captured (you never pay for an empty run).

### Input

```json
{
  "urls": [
    { "url": "https://apify.com" },
    { "url": "https://news.ycombinator.com" }
  ],
  "fullPage": true,
  "device": "desktop",
  "format": "png",
  "dismissDialogs": true,
  "waitUntil": "networkidle",
  "extraWaitMs": 800
}
```

| Option | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| `urls` | Page URLs to capture | required |
| `fullPage` | Whole page (true) or viewport only (false) | true |
| `device` | `desktop`, `desktop-hd`, `tablet`, `mobile` | desktop |
| `format` | `png` or `jpeg` | png |
| `jpegQuality` | 1–100 (JPEG only) | 80 |
| `dismissDialogs` | Auto-close cookie banners / popups | true |
| `waitUntil` | `load`, `domcontentloaded`, `networkidle` | networkidle |
| `extraWaitMs` | Extra wait for late animations/lazy images | 800 |

### Output

- Each screenshot is saved to the run's key-value store, and a dataset record is produced with the direct `imageUrl`, the URL, device, format and timestamp.
- Pull results via the Apify API or download images directly.

### Common uses

- Visual monitoring and change tracking
- Thumbnails and link previews for apps and dashboards
- Automated design/QA snapshots across device sizes
- Feeding page images to AI agents and pipelines

### Notes

Captures publicly accessible pages only. Use responsibly and in line with the target sites' terms.

# Actor input Schema

## `urls` (type: `array`):

One or more page URLs to screenshot.

## `maxUrls` (type: `integer`):

Safety cap on how many URLs a single run will process, to bound cost.

## `fullPage` (type: `boolean`):

Capture the entire scrollable page (true) or just the visible viewport (false).

## `device` (type: `string`):

Viewport preset to render with.

## `format` (type: `string`):

Output image format: PNG (lossless) or JPEG (smaller files).

## `jpegQuality` (type: `integer`):

1-100, only used when format is JPEG.

## `dismissDialogs` (type: `boolean`):

Try to close common cookie banners and consent popups before capturing.

## `waitUntil` (type: `string`):

When to consider the page ready before capturing.

## `extraWaitMs` (type: `integer`):

Additional wait after load, for late animations/lazy images.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "urls": [
        {
            "url": "https://apify.com"
        }
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("psymall/screenshot-pro").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});
