Introduction

Website Screenshot Generator lets you capture full-page or viewport-specific screenshots from any public webpage. It’s built for developers, QA engineers, and analysts who need reliable and configurable visual snapshots of websites.

Why It Matters

• Generate screenshots at specific page load stages (e.g., load, domcontentloaded).
• Control viewport size, delays, and scrolling behavior.
• Capture consistent results for monitoring or visual comparison.
• Easily store and retrieve screenshots from output files.

FAQs

Q1: Can it capture pages that require login? It doesn’t support interactive logins, but you can use proxy or cookies injection to handle authenticated sessions.

Q2: How can I prevent incomplete screenshots? Set waitUntil to networkidle2 and use delay to allow full rendering of dynamic content.

Q3: Why am I being redirected or blocked? Some websites block datacenter IPs. Use residential proxies for reliable access.

Q4: How large can the screenshot be? Viewport width supports up to 3840 pixels and scroll-to-bottom enables full-page captures.
