# Zillow Search

`POST /v1/zillow/search`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.prismcrawl.com`
- URL: `https://api.prismcrawl.com/v1/zillow/search`
- Auth: API key in header `x-api-key`

Search Zillow listings using a city/neighborhood/postal query, a region ID, or map bounds. Filter sale, rental and sold inventory by property details, amenities and listing selections. Filter and location selections must be retained by the source; omitted optional listing details remain zero values. Query and region_id are mutually exclusive. Rental-only and sale-only filters require the corresponding status_type.

## Request body

- CatalogZillowRequest: Search Zillow listings using a city/neighborhood/postal query, a region ID, or map bounds. Filter sale, rental and sold inventory by property details, amenities and listing selections. Filter and location selections must be retained by the source; omitted optional listing details remain zero values. Query and region_id are mutually exclusive. Rental-only and sale-only filters require the corresponding status_type.
  - `query` string: Text to search for on the selected service. At most 8,192 UTF-8 bytes.
  - `page` integer: One-based page number.
  - `device` 'desktop' | 'mobile' | 'tablet': Device presentation for the source request.
  - `html` boolean: Return the encoded original response rather than parsed JSON.
  - `zero_trace` boolean: Do not archive source or parsed response artifacts.
  - `region_id` string: Zillow region identifier; use it instead of query.
  - `map_bounds` string: Search rectangle as north,east,south,west.
  - `status_type` 'sale' | 'rent' | 'sold': Listing market; defaults to sale.
  - `price` string: Sale price or monthly rental payment as min or min,max; omit the minimum for a maximum-only range.
  - `beds` string: Bedroom count as min or min,max; omit the minimum for a maximum-only range.
  - `baths` string: Bathroom count as min or min,max; omit the minimum for a maximum-only range.
  - `sqft` string: Floor area in square feet as min or min,max; omit the minimum for a maximum-only range.
  - `year_built` string: Construction year as min or min,max; omit the minimum for a maximum-only range.
  - `lot_size` string: Lot area in square feet as min or min,max; omit the minimum for a maximum-only range.
  - `has_garage` boolean: Require a garage.
  - `single_story` boolean: Require a single story.
  - `price_reduction` boolean: Require a price reduction.
  - `hide_no_date_listings` boolean: Hide rentals with no availability date; requires move_in_date when true.
  - `short_term_lease` boolean: Require a short-term rental lease.
  - `home_type` string: Complete comma-separated selection of property types; rental choices differ.
  - `amenities` string: Comma-separated required amenities; rental-only choices require status_type=rent.
  - `view` string: Comma-separated required views.
  - `basement` string: Comma-separated basement types for sale or sold properties.
  - `listing_type` string: Complete selection of sale listing types.
  - `listing_status` string: Complete selection of sale listing statuses.
  - `tours` string: Required sale tour options.
  - `pets` string: Required rental pet policies; no_pets is exclusive.
  - `listing_features` string: Required rental listing features.
  - `age_55_plus` 'include' | 'exclude' | 'only': Include, exclude, or require age-restricted communities.
  - `time_on_zillow` string: Maximum listing age in days, or 6m,12m,24m,36m.
  - `keywords` string: Comma-separated property keywords.
  - `hoa_max` integer: Maximum monthly HOA fee for sale or sold properties, including zero.
  - `parking_spots` integer: Minimum parking spaces for sale or sold properties.
  - `space` 'any' | 'entire_place' | 'room': Rental space selection.
  - `move_in_date` string: Latest rental availability date in YYYY-MM-DD format.
  - `sort_by` 'globalrelevanceex' | 'featured' | 'priced' | 'pricea' | 'paymentd' | 'paymenta' | 'days' | 'beds' | 'baths' | 'size' | 'lot' | 'priorityscore': Native sorting; rentals use payment sorting and allow featured/priorityscore.
  - `output` 'json' | 'html' | 'md' | 'null', nullable: Response content format. md returns Markdown in data.content with data.format=md; the JSON success/request envelope remains. Accept: text/markdown also selects Markdown unless output or html=true is explicit. html is an alias for html=true and retains the existing Brotli/Base64 source format.
  - `json_restrictor` string, nullable: Select fields within data.content for JSON or Markdown. Supports comma-separated paths, non-negative array indices, half-open slices [0:3] (either bound may be omitted), [] and .{nested,subqueries}. Up to128 selections and16 levels. Missing fields are omitted; selected declared fields retain their zero defaults. The request envelope and credit headers remain. Include next_page_token when pagination is needed. Incompatible with HTML output. This changes response presentation only; tracing-enabled history retains the complete JSON result.
  - `no_cache` boolean, nullable: Accepted for compatibility. Searches are always fetched without a result cache for either value; normal successful-request billing applies.

## Response `200`

Request completed. One credit is charged, including recognized empty or unavailable source results and source inventory changes discovered after a valid continuation is fetched. These completed responses may preserve verified partial results; operational failures remain errors.

## Other responses

- `400`: The JSON body, source selection, or continuation is invalid. Locally malformed, forged, expired, or mismatched tokens are rejected before source work and require restarting pagination. A source may also reject an otherwise well-formed selector after acquisition. These errors do not spend a search credit. Source inventory changes discovered during a valid request return a completed response instead.
- `401`: The API token is missing, invalid, expired, or revoked.
- `402`: No credits remain.
- `429`: Account rate limit exceeded.
- `500`: The request could not be completed.
