Does Zillow still have an official public API?

Not for listings. Zillow retired its public GetSearchResults / GetZestimate APIs, and current official access runs through restrictive partner programs aimed at MLS members and large integrators. The Zillow Real Estate API scrapes the public listing page instead: any /homedetails/ URL with your API Codex key returns the live property record as JSON.

What fields do I get for a property?

The core record includes address, listing status, price, Zestimate, beds, baths, square footage, lot size, year built, days on Zillow, price per sqft, HOA fees, price history and the listing agent or brokerage where published. Use fields= to trim the response to just the fields your pipeline needs.

How fresh is the data?

Every request triggers a live scrape of the listing at that moment, so price changes, status flips (For Sale, Pending, Sold) and Zestimate updates show up immediately rather than after a cache refresh. That is also why responses take 5-45 seconds instead of milliseconds.

What does an HTTP 202 response mean and how do I handle it?

If a scrape exceeds the synchronous window, the API returns 202 with a snapshot_id instead of making you wait on an open connection. Poll GET /v1/result?snapshot_id=... until it returns 200 with status "ready" and your data; results are typically ready within 1-2 minutes.

Will my IP get blocked for scraping Zillow?

No. All scraping happens on our side through enterprise scraping infrastructure that handles rotation, blocks and captchas. Nothing runs from your IP, you send no cookies, and only publicly visible listing data is returned.

Scrape any property listing as clean JSON

Zillow Real Estate API Documentation

Pass a Zillow listing URL and get a complete, structured JSON property record back in a single request. All endpoints are GET, and fields= lets you keep only the top-level fields you need. If a scrape exceeds the sync window you get HTTP 202 with a snapshot_id to resolve via /v1/result.
