Mint Hosted Render URL
rendex_render_linkUse this when the user wants a reusable, HOSTED image URL — an og:image or a link to embed in an tag — rather than the image bytes. Renders a URL, raw HTML, or Markdown and gives back a signed, hosted, edge-cached image URL instead of the bytes — ideal for dynamic OG images: drop the URL into or an tag and Rendex serves a cached copy on every share. Takes the same options as rendex_screenshot, plus an optional expiresIn. Returns { url, expiresAt, format, cacheTtl } as JSON. Costs 1 render credit per fresh render; cached repeat hits don't re-charge.

}Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| js | No | Custom JavaScript to execute in the page before capture. Runs in the browser sandbox. Max 50KB. | |
| css | No | Custom CSS to inject into the page before capture. Hide cookie banners, add watermarks, override styles. Max 50KB. | |
| geo | No | ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code for geo-targeted capture (e.g., 'US', 'DE', 'JP'). Renders the page as seen from that country. Pro/Enterprise only. Note: CSS/JS injection, cookies, element capture, dark mode, and some other features are not available with geo-targeting. | |
| url | No | The webpage URL to capture (a schemeless host like 'example.com' is accepted). Mutually exclusive with 'html' and 'markdown'. | |
| data | No | Key-value data object for Mustache templating. When provided, the 'html' or 'markdown' string is rendered as a logic-less Mustache template before capture — {{var}} inserts HTML-escaped, {{{var}}} inserts raw, {{#items}}...{{/items}} iterates arrays, {{a.b}} accesses nested fields. Not valid with 'url'. Max 256KB serialized. | |
| html | No | Raw HTML to render and capture. Mutually exclusive with 'url' and 'markdown'. Great for invoices, social cards, email templates, OG images. | |
| delay | No | Milliseconds to wait after page load before capture (useful for JS-rendered content) | |
| width | No | Viewport width in pixels (320-3840) | |
| device | No | Device preset that sets viewport, scale factor, and user agent in one shot. E.g. 'iphone_15' for a mobile screenshot. Overrides width/height/deviceScaleFactor/userAgent. | |
| format | No | Output format — png (lossless), jpeg (smaller), webp (smallest), or pdf (document). Use pdf for invoices, reports, archival. | png |
| height | No | Viewport height in pixels (240-2160) | |
| cookies | No | Cookies to set before capture. Useful for authenticated pages. Max 50 cookies. | |
| geoCity | No | City for more precise geo-targeting (e.g., 'Berlin', 'New York'). Requires 'geo'. | |
| headers | No | Custom HTTP headers to send with the page request. Cannot override Host, Connection, Content-Length, or Transfer-Encoding. | |
| quality | No | Image quality 1-100 (JPEG/WebP only, ignored for PNG/PDF) | |
| timeout | No | Maximum seconds to wait for page load (5-60). Cloudflare has a 60s hard cap. | |
| blockAds | No | Block ads and trackers before capture | |
| darkMode | No | Emulate dark color scheme (prefers-color-scheme: dark) | |
| fullPage | No | Capture the full scrollable page instead of just the viewport | |
| geoState | No | State or region for more precise geo-targeting (e.g., 'California'). Requires 'geo'. | |
| markdown | No | Markdown to render to an image or PDF. Mutually exclusive with 'url' and 'html'. The server converts it to HTML before rendering. Great for reports, release notes, README snapshots, documentation cards. | |
| pdfScale | No | PDF scale factor (0.1-2). Default: 1 | |
| selector | No | CSS selector of a specific element to capture instead of the full page. Useful for OG images, component extraction (e.g. '#hero', '.pricing-card') | |

| pdfMargin | No | PDF page margins. Only used when format='pdf'. Accepts CSS values. | |
| userAgent | No | Override the browser user agent string. | |
| waitUntil | No | Page readiness event. networkidle2 (default) is best for most sites. Use domcontentloaded for speed, networkidle0 for completeness. | networkidle2 |
| bestAttempt | No | If true (default), capture whatever is rendered on timeout instead of failing. Set to false to get a hard error on timeout. | |
| resizeWidth | No | Downscale the captured image to this width in pixels (16-3840). Aspect ratio is preserved if resizeHeight is omitted. Ignored for PDF. | |
| pdfLandscape | No | PDF landscape orientation. Only used when format='pdf'. | |
| resizeHeight | No | Downscale the captured image to this height in pixels (16-2160). Aspect ratio is preserved if resizeWidth is omitted. Ignored for PDF. | |
| hideSelectors | No | CSS selectors to hide (display:none) before capture. E.g. ['.modal', '#newsletter-popup'] to remove overlays. Max 50 selectors. | |
| waitForSelector | No | CSS selector to wait for before capture. Essential for SPAs (e.g. '.main-content', '#app-loaded') | |

| blockCookieBanners | No | Hide common cookie/consent walls (GDPR/CCPA banners) before capture. A curated selector list, lighter than custom hideSelectors. | |
