i just tried and got this error,

EXCEPTION: SecurityError: Failed to execute 'toDataURL' on 'HTMLCanvasElement': Tainted canvases may not be exported.
browser_adapter.js:77 EXCEPTION: SecurityError: Failed to execute 'toDataURL' on 'HTMLCanvasElement': Tainted canvases may not be exported.

UPDATE
i was able to fix that error by adding image.crossOrigin = 'Anonymous';

Works like a charm!! thanks a lot.

Good to hear.

It is also fixable by setting the img tag similar to:
<img crossOrigin="Anonymous"></img>
