Summary

Screenshot and PDF URLs returned by /v1/screenshot, /v1/pdf and /v1/scrape are now signed and expire after 7 days. This updates the Browser Tools overview to match:

  • The example URLs show the new shape: images.steel.dev/v1/static/artifacts/<token>/<id>.png for screenshots and files.steel.dev/... for PDFs. The old example also had the wrong host for screenshots.
  • "The hosted URL is public and durable" now says the link works without an API key, expires after 7 days, and should be downloaded if needed longer.
  • The PDF section notes the same expiry.

Links issued before the change keep working.

Merge timing

Merge this once the API change is live in production, not before.

Generated screenshot and PDF URLs are now signed and valid for 7 days. Updates the example URLs and replaces the 'public and durable' wording with download guidance.
