Once installed you can generate screenshot urls as follows:
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.HashMap;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String apiKey = "SCREENSHOTSCLOUD_KEY";
String apiSecret = "SCREENSHOTSCLOUD_SECRET";
Screenshotscloud screenshotscloud = new Screenshotscloud(apiKey, apiSecret);
Map<String, Object> options = new HashMap<String, Object>();
options.put("url", "bbc.com/news");
options.put("width", 800);
try {
String result = screenshotscloud.screenshotUrl(options);
System.out.println(result);
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new RuntimeException("Error", e);
}
}
}
These are the options you can use to customize your screenshot.
