Is full page screenshot supported?

[ifx-querido]

According to the welcome page of the V1 documentation , the fullpage screenshot is an existing option for the scrape function. Additionaly, @nickscamara just posted a new announcement about the V1, which includes the fullpage screenshot as an added feature.

However, the Advanced Scraping Guide only lists ["markdown", "links", "html", "rawHtml", "screenshot"] as output formats. And when I try to run:

page_content = app.scrape_url(website, {
  "formats": ['markdown', 'screenshot@fullPage'],
})
print(page_content['screenshot@fullPage'])

I get this error:
KeyError: 'screenshot@fullPage'

Could someone please clarify this inconsistency?

I figured this out on my own.

• In order to get a screenshot of the top part of a website, the format option should be specified as "screenshot".
• In order to get a full page screenshot, the format option should be specified as "screenshot@fullPage".
• Either way, to get the screenshot link, the print request must be always:
  print(page_content['screenshot'])
  And the link will direct you to the screenshot, which is of the entire page or just the top section, depending on what you put as a format option.

what is the difference between format and actions with respect to screenshot?

in node:

    const crawlResponse = await firecrawl_app.scrapeUrl(url, {
      formats: ["markdown", "html", "screenshot@fullPage"],
      actions: [{ type: "screenshot", fullPage: true }],
    });

what is the difference between formats and actions for getting a screenshot?

screenshot@fullPage format always runs after all actions. With the screenshot action, you can take multiple screenshots in between e.g. clicking buttons. The results will be in actions.screenshots in the response.

Just extended the API reference to show this info on the actions Screenshot tab as well.
