Integrations — Rendex Screenshot & Rendering API

Integrations

Drop Rendex into the workflow you already use

n8n, Make, Zapier, Pipedream, and Activepieces for no-code automations. MCP for AI agents. Official SDKs for TypeScript and Python. And a plain REST API for everything else — your first rendered image in minutes, code optional.

n8n

Community node

Official n8n node with HTML, URL, and Markdown render modes. Authenticate once, then drop the Rendex step into any workflow — no Function node or raw HTTP required.

Native node — install from the n8n community registry
HTML → image, URL → screenshot, Markdown → PDF modes
Credential test hits /v1/credential-check (no wasted render)
Binary output pipes straight into Drive, Slack, or email nodes

Rendex for n8n n8n Setup Guide

// n8n workflow step
Trigger   →  Webhook / Schedule
Rendex    →  Render: HTML to Image
              html   = {{ $json.invoiceHtml }}
              format = png
Next step →  Google Drive — Upload
              file = {{ $binary.data }}

Make (HTTP module)

Template

There is no native Make app — and you do not need one. Use Make's built-in HTTP module to call Rendex, then pipe the rendered image or PDF into Drive, Slack, Notion, or any of Make's 2,000+ apps.

Works with the generic HTTP > Make a request module
POST JSON, get binary image/PDF or a JSON URL back
Drop the result into Drive, Slack, Notion, or email
No code — wire any trigger straight to a rendered image

Rendex for Make Make Setup Guide

# Make scenario — HTTP module
URL     = https://api.rendex.dev/v1/screenshot
Method  = POST
Headers = Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
          Content-Type: application/json
Body    = {
  "html": "{{1.htmlBody}}",
  "format": "png"
}
# → pipe the binary response into Google Drive

Power Automate (HTTP action)

Template

No custom connector needed — call Rendex from Power Automate's built-in HTTP action, then save the rendered image or PDF to OneDrive, SharePoint, or an email. It's the #2 way Rendex is used.

Works with the built-in HTTP action (premium connector)
POST JSON to /v1/screenshot/json, get a base64 image/PDF back
Decode with base64ToBinary() into a Create file action
Save to OneDrive, SharePoint, or attach in Outlook

Rendex for Power Automate Power Automate Setup Guide

# Power Automate — HTTP action
URI     = https://api.rendex.dev/v1/screenshot/json
Method  = POST
Headers = Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
          Content-Type: application/json
Body    = { "html": "{{triggerBody()?['html']}}",
            "format": "pdf" }
# → Create file: base64ToBinary(body('HTTP')?['data']?['image'])

Zapier

Native action

Native Zapier action with rendering presets — social card, thumbnail, full-page capture, PDF report, OG image. Automate across 7,000+ apps with no code.

Native Rendex actions in the Zapier editor — no code
Capture screenshots, render HTML, generate PDFs, extract text
Polling + webhook callbacks for async jobs
Built-in retries, logging, and error handling

Rendex for Zapier Zapier Setup Guide

# Example Zap: Weekly competitor screenshots
Trigger  →  Schedule by Zapier — Every Monday 9am
Action   →  Rendex — Capture Screenshot
             url      = https://competitor.com
             format   = png
             fullPage = true
Action   →  Slack — Send to #market-intel
             file = {{Rendex.file}}

Pipedream

Native action

Native Rendex action in Pipedream. Render HTML or a URL to an image or PDF, then pipe the base64 result into Slack, Gmail, Drive, S3, or any of Pipedream's 3,000+ connected apps. Drop into a code step for the full REST surface.

Native Render to Image action — Connect Account once
HTML → image and URL → screenshot, PNG/JPEG/WebP/PDF
Base64 output pipes straight into Slack, Gmail, Drive, or S3
Code step exposes the full REST API with the same key

Rendex for Pipedream Pipedream Setup Guide

# Pipedream workflow
Trigger  ->  HTTP / Schedule / App event
Rendex   ->  Render to Image
              html   = {{steps.trigger.event.body.html}}
              format = png
Slack    ->  Send Message
              file = {{steps.rendex.$return_value.image}}

Activepieces

Native piece

Native open-source Rendex piece. Render HTML, a URL, or Markdown to an image or PDF, then pipe the rendered file into any Activepieces piece. Every piece is also exposed as an MCP tool, so the same action is callable by your AI agents — on Activepieces Cloud or self-hosted.

Native Render to Image piece — connect your key once
HTML, URL, or Markdown → PNG/JPEG/WebP/PDF
File output pipes straight into Drive, Slack, or Gmail
Auto-exposed as an MCP tool for Claude, Cursor, Windsurf

Rendex for Activepieces Activepieces Setup Guide

# Activepieces flow
Trigger  ->  Webhook / Schedule / App event
Rendex   ->  Render to Image
              source = Markdown
              format = pdf
Drive    ->  Upload File
              file = {{ step_2.file }}

MCP Server

AI-native

Native Model Context Protocol server so Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-aware agent can render images and PDFs as a single tool call.

Remote endpoint at mcp.rendex.dev
Local stdio via npx @copperline/rendex-mcp
Semantic tool definitions (not raw REST)
Per-key rate limiting & edge auth

MCP Setup Guide

// Claude Desktop config
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rendex": {
      "url": "https://mcp.rendex.dev/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

pip install rendex

from rendex import Rendex

client = Rendex("your-api-key")
result = client.render_html(
    "<h1>Hello</h1>",
    format="png",
)
# result.image → bytes

REST API

HTTP

A plain REST API that works with any language or HTTP client. JSON request body, binary or JSON response. No SDK required — this is what every integration above calls under the hood.

POST /v1/screenshot — render any URL or HTML
POST /v1/screenshot/batch — up to 500 URLs
JSON request body, binary or JSON response
Works with cURL, fetch, axios, requests, or any client

API Reference

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "url": "https://example.com",
    "format": "png",
    "fullPage": true
  }' \
  --output screenshot.png

cURL / CLI

Shell

No installation needed. Test the API from your terminal with a single cURL command — great for scripting and CI/CD pipelines.
