​
How it Works

The core of the ZenRows API is the API Endpoint, which is structured based on the industry, target website, type of request, and query parameters. This modular approach allows you to extract data efficiently from various sources.

https://<INDUSTRY>.api.zenrows.com/v1/targets/<WEBSITE>/<TYPE_OF_REQUEST>/<QUERY_ID_URL>?<YOUR_ZENROWS_API_KEY>

Each part of the URL serves a specific purpose:

  • <INDUSTRY> The industry category (e.g., ecommerce, realestate, serp).
  • <WEBSITE> The target website (e.g., amazon, idealista, google).
  • <TYPE_OF_REQUEST> The type of data you want (e.g., products, reviews, search).
  • <QUERY_ID_URL> The unique identifier for the request, such as a product ID, property ID, or query.
  • <YOUR_ZENROWS_API_KEY> Your personal API key for authentication and access.

Here’s an example for Amazon Product Information API:

https://ecommerce.api.zenrows.com/v1/targets/amazon/products/{asin}

Breaking it down:

  • Industry: ecommerce
  • Website: amazon
  • Type of Request: products
  • Query ID: {asin} (Amazon Standard Identification Number, used for product lookup)

​
Customization with Additional Parameters

Depending on the website, you may include extra parameters to refine your request:

  • .tld Specify the top-level domain (e.g., .com, .co.uk, .de).
  • country Set the country code to retrieve localized data.
  • filters Apply filters to extract specific data.

​
API key

Your API Key is the gateway to the ZenRows Scraper APIs, functioning as both an authentication tool and an identifier for all your requests. Without it, you won’t be able to access ZenRows’ features or receive any scraped data.

You can easily create your API Key by signing up for an account.

Make sure to store your key securely and never share it publicly.
