API 1.14: batch requests, JPEG, multiple screenshots
Happy New Year!
We have released the API 1.14 which includes:
- batch requests: get thousands of screenshots from a text file. More details below.
- JPEG: choose your screenshots in PNG or JPEG
- multiple screenshots of the same page
All of these features were requested by our customers. Don't hesitate to contact us if you need anything.
Batch requests
 |
| Download a ZIP of all your screenshots |
It is now easy to get hundreds or thousands of screenshots from your dashboard. Upload a text file with the list of URLs (1 URL per line), choose your parameters (screenshot size, browser, etc.) and voila!
You will get a ZIP file with all the screenshots as well as a CSV file (which can be opened with a text editor or Excel) that maps each image file with its URL.

| Request thousands of screenshots from your dashboard |
We provide an API as well to create new batch request and to track them.
JPEG format
While PNG is a better image format for most cases, we now offer JPEG format as well. You can specify format=jpeg in the screenshot/thumbnail API call.
Multiple screenshots of the same page
You can take multiple screenshots of the same page, for example 3 screenshots every 10 seconds.
And more...
We have increased our screenshot capacity by a factor of 5 on all desktop browsers. We've made additional improvements in the rendering of mobile devices.
We have removed our CDN offering. We can offer much better prices with our distributed Browshot hosting.
>I wish everybody a happy new year. I'm sure it will be an exciting year for Browshot!
