> Cloudflare Browser Rendering REST API for crawling websites, extracting content as markdown, taking screenshots, generating PDFs, and scraping structured data.

Cloudflare Browser Rendering REST API for crawling websites, extracting content as markdown, taking screenshots, generating PDFs, and scraping structured data. Best for workflows needing web content extraction — converting web pages to markdown, capturing visual snapshots, or extracting structured data from rendered pages. Unlike search APIs (Brave, Exa), Cloudflare renders and extracts from specific URLs rather than searching across the web.

10 endpoints available through Lava's AI Gateway. See the [Cloudflare API docs](https://developers.cloudflare.com/browser-rendering/rest-api/) for full documentation.

<Info>Supports both **managed** (Lava's API keys) and **unmanaged** (bring your own credentials) mode.</Info>
