## About

## What it does
Webpage Screenshot lets you capture any web page as an image from its URL. Send a `GET` request to `/take-screenshot` with the page `url`, plus the `width` and `height` you want, and get back a JPEG (`image/jpeg`) of exactly that size.

`url`, `width`, and `height` are all required. `width` and `height` set the size of the browser viewport, and the page is captured 1:1 at that size, so text stays sharp. Both accept values from 100 to 1920 pixels, and values outside that range are clamped. Small widths show the site's mobile layout, which makes it easy to check how a page looks on different screens.

The response is the image itself and not JSON, so you can save it to a file, display it in your app, or hand it to the next step of a workflow directly.

Use Webpage Screenshot when you need link previews, website thumbnails, visual monitoring and archiving, or responsive layout checks without running your own headless browser.

- They run about 1,000 to 1,100 characters each, in line with the catalog's median of about 1,050.
- I only used details from each endpoint's own docs and schema (GET, the paths, required fields and limits). I didn't add related-service links, because the ingredient service has them only because its sibling services have known URLs.
- I'm not sure the crop behavior is documented beyond "controls whether the image is cropped". If the provider can clarify what crop does, add that sentence.
