Yes, it is as simple as that.

Use metadata_icon option to get the favicon used by a website. The default value is false:

https://api.screenshotone.com/take?metadata_icon=true&url=https://screenshotone.com/&access_key=<access key>

The result will be returned as headers:

X-ScreenshotOne-Icon: {"url":"https://screenshotone.com/favicon-32x32.png","type":"image/png"}

Or as JSON:

{
"metadata": {
"icon": {
"url": "https://screenshotone.com/favicon-32x32.png",
"type": "image/png"
}
}
}

It is also available in the playground.

As always, if you have any questions, please, reach out at support@screenshotone.com.
