CloudConvert / Capture a website

CloudConvert tool cloudconvert-capture-website on looot: input fields, $0.008 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.

Renders a URL in a headless Chrome engine and exports it as a PDF, PNG or JPG. Fixed two-task shape: capture-website -> export/url.

  • Tool id: cloudconvert-capture-website
  • Provider: CloudConvert
  • Job: Capture website web (web.capture-website)
  • Price: $0.008 per call. A call that fails at the provider costs $0.

Inputs

Name Type Required Description
tag string no
tasks object yes

Output

Shape of the run’s result, checked against 2 real answers:

{ data: { id, tag, links: { self }, tasks: { id, code, name, links: { ... }, engine, job_id, region, result: { ... }, status, credits, message, percent, storage, user_id, ended_at, priority, host_name, operation, created_at, started_at, engine_version, copy_of_task_id, retry_of_task_id, depends_on_task_ids: string[] }[], status, ended_at, created_at, started_at } }

Run it

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"cloudconvert-capture-website","input":{"tasks":{}},"wait":30}'
const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "cloudconvert-capture-website",
    input: {
      tasks: {},
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "cloudconvert-capture-website",
        "input": {
            "tasks": {},
        },
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))

To let looot pick among every provider of this job instead, send job:web.capture-website as endpointId; see the job page.
