Overview#

The ApiFlash API lets you capture website screenshots programmatically. It's a Chrome-based screenshot API for developers, ideal for automating the process of taking snapshots of web pages for archiving, performance monitoring, or visual verification. With Pipedream, you can harness this functionality to create event-driven workflows, tapping into vast integration possibilities.

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    apiflash: {
      type: "app",
      app: "apiflash",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.apiflash.com/v1/urltoimage`,
      params: {
        access_key: `${this.apiflash.$auth.access_key}`,
        url: `https://google.com`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Example Use Cases#

Content Archiving Automation: Build a workflow that triggers daily, capturing screenshots of key web pages and storing them in cloud storage like AWS S3 or Google Cloud Storage. Useful for compliance and record-keeping.
Visual Monitoring of Web Performance: Set up a Pipedream workflow that periodically takes screenshots of your web application's critical paths. Compare these snapshots over time or against a baseline image to detect visual regressions or performance issues.
Social Media Campaign Tracking: Create a workflow that captures screenshots of social media posts or ad campaigns using ApiFlash. Have Pipedream send the images to your marketing team on Slack or via email for quick reviews and approvals.

Authentication#

Name Slug: apiflash

ApiFlash uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your ApiFlash account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to ApiFlash APIs in both code and no-code steps.

All API calls needs to be authenticated using a valid access key that can be found in the dashboard.
