How to download and export your renders

There are a few ways to get renders out of Orshot, depending on whether you're in the Studio, the Playground, or the API.

From Orshot Studio#

While designing, File → Download exports what's on your canvas — handy for quick one-off exports:

Clicking it opens the download options — copy to clipboard or save the current page as PNG, AVIF, PDF, HTML, even MP4 for animated templates:

From the Playground#

After generating a render, the Preview panel gives you the file directly — download it, or copy the render URL to use anywhere (the URL serves the generated file).

From the API#

Control the output with the response object in your render request:

{
  "templateId": "your-template-id",
  "modifications": { "title": "Hello" },
  "response": {
    "type": "url",
    "format": "png"
  }
}

• type — url (hosted link), base64 (inline data), or binary (raw file)
• format — png, jpg, webp, avif, pdf — plus mp4, webm and gif for video templates

See the full options in the Image Generation, PDF Generation, and Video Generation docs.

Renders showing old content?#

Orshot caches renders so they load fast. If you're seeing an outdated render after changing your template, see Why are my renders not updating?
