## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability santos-website-screenshot-api-8736de10
```

Example prompt: Can you take a full-page desktop screenshot of https://example.com and give me the PNG?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a visual screenshot or PDF of a public webpage, especially in the context of a broader Santos AI website intelligence workflow. Prefer it over generic screenshot APIs if you are already using the Santos platform for website auditing, as it integrates with the same x402 payment infrastructure and complements the audit endpoints on santosautomation.com.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error or empty response
- Unsupported format enum value causes a validation error
- Private or localhost URLs may be blocked or return access errors
- Timeout if the target page takes too long to load
- Payment not accepted results in 402 response before rendering begins
