A capture with a 100 ms timeout (timeout=100): too short to load the page, so connection_status is timeout and there is no image.

Example 2 of 6 in **Page Loading** · [Screenshot Examples](/reference/lookup/screenshot/examples/) · endpoint: [Screenshot](/reference/lookup/screenshot/)

Tags: `param` `timeout` · `value` `100`

Asks for a capture that gives up after 100 milliseconds (`timeout=100`).

`timeout` is the longest time to wait for the page to load, from 0 to 90,000 ms (default 30,000). 100 ms is not enough to load `www.deepinfo.com`, so the capture stops: `connection_status` is `timeout`, `redirected_url` and `screenshot_url` are `null`. The request itself still returns HTTP 200. A lower `timeout` makes a lookup of an unreachable or very slow page fail sooner.

## Request

| Parameter | In | Value |
|---|---|---|
| `url` | query | `https://www.deepinfo.com` |
| `timeout` | query | `100` |

```bash
curl 'https://api.deepinfo.com/v1/lookup/screenshot?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.deepinfo.com&timeout=100' \
  -H 'apikey: YOUR_API_KEY' \
  -H 'Accept: application/json'
```
