This endpoint answered with an authorization challenge. The server is running, but you need an API key from its owner to call it.

Website Screenshot API — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no tool list for Website Screenshot API?

The server answered our handshake with an authorization challenge, so it is running — but it will not describe its tools to an anonymous client. To see them you need to connect with your own credentials. We record it as alive, not as broken: 100.0% of checks in the last 24 hours got a reply.

Is Website Screenshot API working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 79 of 79 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 368 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Website Screenshot API?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address. You will need your own key: it refuses anonymous clients.

Does Website Screenshot API need an API key?

Yes. Every time we knock, Website Screenshot API answers with an authorization challenge instead of its tool list — that is how we know it is running and gated rather than broken. Bring your own credentials and it will talk.

How fast is Website Screenshot API?

It answers our handshake in 368 ms on average, which is faster than 36% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Website Screenshot API open source?

The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at mcp.apify.com, which runs on its operator's own terms.
