## New formats parameter for the Browser Run /snapshot endpoint

Jun 11, 2026 

[ Browser Run ](https://developers.cloudflare.com/browser-run/) 

[Browser Run](https://developers.cloudflare.com/browser-run/)'s [/snapshot endpoint](https://developers.cloudflare.com/browser-run/quick-actions/snapshot/) now supports a `formats` parameter that lets you return multiple page formats in a single API call. Previously, `/snapshot` returned only HTML content and a screenshot. You can now also include Markdown and the accessibility tree in the same response.

These formats are particularly useful for AI agent workflows:

* Markdown provides a token-efficient representation of page content that LLMs can process directly, without parsing HTML markup.
* The accessibility tree provides a structured representation of a page's elements, including roles, labels, and hierarchy, helping LLMs understand page structure and navigate its contents.

The following example returns a screenshot, Markdown, and the accessibility tree in one call:

* [ curl ](#tab-panel-2566)
* [ TypeScript SDK ](#tab-panel-2567)
* [ Workers Bindings ](#tab-panel-2568)

Terminal window

```
curl -X POST 'https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/<accountId>/browser-rendering/snapshot' \  -H 'Authorization: Bearer <apiToken>' \  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \  -d '{    "url": "https://example.com/",    "formats": ["screenshot", "markdown", "accessibilityTree"]  }'
```

TypeScript

```
import Cloudflare from "cloudflare";
const client = new Cloudflare({  apiToken: process.env["CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN"],});
const snapshot = await client.browserRendering.snapshot.create({  account_id: process.env["CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID"],  url: "https://example.com/",  formats: ["screenshot", "markdown", "accessibilityTree"],});
console.log(snapshot.markdown);console.log(snapshot.accessibilityTree);
```

TypeScript

```
interface Env {  BROWSER: BrowserRun;}
export default {  async fetch(request, env): Promise<Response> {    return await env.BROWSER.quickAction("snapshot", {      url: "https://example.com/",      formats: ["screenshot", "markdown", "accessibilityTree"],    });  },} satisfies ExportedHandler<Env>;
```

You must request at least two formats. If you only need one, use the respective single-format endpoint such as [/screenshot](https://developers.cloudflare.com/browser-run/quick-actions/screenshot-endpoint/) or [/markdown](https://developers.cloudflare.com/browser-run/quick-actions/markdown-endpoint/).

Refer to the [/snapshot documentation](https://developers.cloudflare.com/browser-run/quick-actions/snapshot/) for the full list of accepted values.
