A: Thanks for your detailed questions! Here are the answers one-by-one:
Do you provide a simple URL/formula for Google Sheets? Not yet — currently, screenshots are created via API requests rather than a direct formula-style URL.
What is the response format? PeekShot returns a CDN-hosted image URL in the API response. You get a direct link to the screenshot file (no base64 or redirect...
Example: Suppose I have a Google sheet with website url in column-A.
Can I create an API formula to get screenshot URL of all these website urls in column-A to Column-B where I use Peekshot API with Google sheet formula, similar to how Logo.dev or clearbit etc offers an API formula to create website favicon in the go?
Is it possible to take daily screenshots using PeekShot, extract information, and save it to Google Sheets using n8n or a similar platform? Also, if PeekShot gets blocked by websites, does it use multiple IPs to avoid being blocked? I want to extract some information once a day. Is this method suitable for that task?

A: Yes — PeekShot can absolutely take daily screenshots. You can schedule a daily (or any frequency) screenshot and we return a screenshot image URL, which you can easily send to Google Sheets using n8n, Zapier, Make.com, or any similar automation platform.
Regarding blocking: PeekShot does use multiple IPs to reduce the chances of being blocked. However, advanced protection systems like...
A lot of european websites got full screen cookie banners, are these "clickable" via the API - for example by providing the button class?

A: Hi there 👋
Yes, you can handle such cookie banners by injecting custom CSS or JavaScript through the API. PeekShot supports parameters like inject_css and inject_js, which let you modify the page before taking the screenshot — for example, clicking buttons, hiding banners, or adjusting layout elements.
For more details and usage examples, please refer to our documentation:...
I was going through your API documentation and couldn’t find any options related to screenshot timing triggers. For example, taking a screenshot after page idle, after network idle (1 or 2), or after DOM / full page load.
Could you please confirm if your tool currently supports any of these trigger conditions? If not, do you have plans to add such options in the future?
Also, I would like to know under the current setup, on which specific event or trigger does your tool take the screenshot by default?

Thanks for checking out PeekShot and diving into our API!
At the moment, PeekShot captures screenshots when the "DOMContentLoaded" event fires — meaning the initial HTML document has been completely loaded and parsed. Currently, there isn’t an option to customize the trigger (e.g., after page idle, network idle, or full page load).
However, this feature is already on our internal...
Any chance we can get non expiring credit packs for when we go over our limits for the month? Instead of losing ability to use the software we could just have it auto deduct from the credit packs. Bonus points if you can have it automatically replenish when the credit packs expire as well. This would make it to where once its setup you barely ever have to worry about it again since it will cover all bases.

A: We don’t support automatic overages yet, but we know how important that is for smooth API usage.
We're working on:
1) Real-time email notifications when you're nearing your quota.
2) Backup payment support for optional top-ups.
Also, let us know roughly how many credits you expect to need monthly — it’ll help us prioritize early access and improvements.
