DataForSEO API documentation / /v3/serp/screenshot

DataForSEO tool dataforseo-serp-screenshot on looot: input fields, $0.002 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.

‌‌ Using the Live Page Screenshot endpoint, you can capture a screenshot of any SERP page.

  • Tool id: dataforseo-serp-screenshot
  • Provider: DataForSEO
  • Job: Screenshot serp (serp.screenshot)
  • Price: $0.002 per call. A call that fails at the provider costs $0.

Inputs

Name Type Required Description
tasks array yes one task object per request; DataForSEO takes an array at the body root

Output

Shape of the run’s result, the expected shape, not yet checked against real answers:

{ cost, time, tasks: { id, cost, data: { api, task_id, function, browser_screen_scale_factor }, path: string[], time, result, status_code, result_count, status_message }[], version, status_code, tasks_count, tasks_error, status_message }

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":"dataforseo-serp-screenshot","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: "dataforseo-serp-screenshot",
    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": "dataforseo-serp-screenshot",
        "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:serp.screenshot as endpointId; see the job page.
