Pulled straight from the server with tools/list on 2026-10-17.
scraperead-only

Scrape any webpage and return its content using Zenrows (Fetch). Returns full-page content (markdown/HTML/PDF/screenshot). For structured JSON fields (products, articles, listings), the extract tool returns parsed fields instead of a full page body. By default the request uses automatic mode (mode=auto): Zenrows adds JS rendering or premium proxies per page only when a plain request does not ret

extractread-only

Extract structured data from a webpage via Zenrows. Returns JSON fields (products, articles, listings) rather than a full page body. Modes: - auto (default): extract=auto, site-tailored Extract (currently free, billing may apply later). Works on any domain Zenrows has prepared, with any API key; falls back to autoparse when the domain isn't prepared yet (REQS007) - autoparse: general-purpose

batch_create

Submit a cloud Batch job that fans out many URLs asynchronously (Zenrows Batch API). NOT the same as browser_batch — this hits https://async.api.zenrows.com/v1 with X-API-Key. Suited to large URL lists; scrape and extract handle single pages. Tasks use automatic mode (mode=auto) by default: Zenrows enables JS rendering and premium proxies only on the pages that need them, and charges only for th

batch_statusread-only

Get status and stats for a Zenrows Batch job (latest_run.status + latest_run.stats).

batch_resultsread-only

List result rows for a Batch job (cursor-paginated server-side; returns the full list). Each row may include task_id, external_id, status, and a short-lived result_url for the body. Download result_url soon — presigned links expire.

batch_cancelcan modify

Stop an in-flight Batch job run (POST /jobs/:id/stop).

batch_waitread-only

Poll batch_status until the job reaches a terminal state (completed, failed, stopped, or deleted). A run that hits an API key credit cap ends as failed with failure_reason api_key_cap_reached.

crawl_create

Start a crawl from one URL (Zenrows Crawl API). Crawl follows the links in each page's HTML up to depth hops (no depth limit when depth is omitted), keeps the URLs that match include_patterns / exclude_patterns, and stays on the start URL's registrable domain (subdomains count). Use crawl when you have one start page (a listing, category, blog index) and need the URLs behind it, optionally with e

crawl_getread-only

Get a crawl and one page of the URLs it kept: crawl_id, status (running, completed, stopped, failed), the crawl (with coverage: pages_fetched, pages_failed, items_found), results and next_cursor. completed with stop_reason max_items / max_pages means a limit ended it; stopped with stop_reason user means crawl_stop ended it; stopped with no stop_reason and error.code insufficient_credits or api_ke

crawl_resultsread-only

List the URLs a crawl kept, in the order it kept them, following the API's pages up to limit. Each result has url and, when the crawl has output_format, content_status (pending, fetched, failed) and, once fetched, content_url: pass it to crawl_content as content. While the crawl runs the list is partial (partial=true): call again later with the returned next_cursor to get only the URLs kept sinc

crawl_contentread-only

Read the stored page of one URL a crawl kept, in the crawl's output_format. Works only for crawls created with an output_format, and only for results whose content_status is fetched. Pass crawl_id and content_id: a content id, or content_url from a crawl_results row. Returns the page as stored — raw HTML for output_format "html", Markdown for "markdown" — cut to max_chars (default 20000); a final

crawl_listread-only

List this account's crawls, newest first, with status and coverage (no results). Pass next_cursor as cursor for the next page; next_cursor is absent on the last page.

crawl_stopcan modify

Stop a running crawl. No page still waiting is fetched or billed; pages already in flight finish. The URLs kept so far stay readable with crawl_results. A stopped crawl cannot resume. Idempotent: a crawl that already ended answers with its final status. A 429, 502, 503 or 504 is retried up to 3 times, waiting at most 50 seconds in all; a 503 crawl_busy means the stop was not saved yet, and if it

crawl_waitread-only

Poll a crawl until it ends (completed, stopped, or failed) and return its status, its counts and the first 20 URLs (first_urls). For every result, call crawl_download (one file) or crawl_results (pages). A crawl that ends completed with no results and no error finished; it is not a failure (see crawl_get). If the wait runs out first, it returns the crawl with status running and a note: call crawl_

crawl_download

Save every result of a crawl to one local file, as JSON lines: url, content_status and, once fetched, content (the page). Returns the file's path and line count, not the results, so a crawl of any size costs one small reply. Read the file with your own tools. The file goes to path when given (a relative path inside ~/.zenrows/crawls; an absolute path or one that leaves that folder fails with INVA

account_usageread-only

Read the current plan's credit allowance and how much of it is spent. Useful before a large batch, or after a 402 / AUTH004, to see whether the account has credits left and when the allowance renews. The call is free and does not use a concurrency slot. Credit costs per request: 1 basic, 5 js_render, 10 premium_proxy, 25 both. AUTH004 ("usage exceeded") means this allowance is spent until it re

browser_navigate

Open a Zenrows Browser Sessions session and navigate to a URL. This is the entry point for all browser automation. It creates a new session backed by Zenrows' hosted browser infrastructure and navigates to the given URL in one step. Returns a session_id that every other browser_* tool takes. The session holds one concurrency slot until browser_close closes it. When to use options: - proxy_count

browser_close

Close a browser session and free all associated resources, including the concurrency slot it holds.

browser_go_back

Navigate back to the previous page in the browser history.

browser_go_forward

Navigate forward to the next page in the browser history.

browser_reload

Reload the current page of a browser session.

browser_click

Click an element on the page using a CSS selector.

browser_hover

Move the mouse cursor over an element to trigger hover effects.

browser_type

Type text into an input element. Appends to existing content unless clear_first is set.

browser_fill

Clear an input field and set its value, replacing what was there (browser_type appends instead).

browser_select_option

Select an option from a <select> dropdown element.

browser_check

Check a checkbox or radio button.

browser_uncheck

Uncheck a checkbox, found by CSS selector, in a browser session.

browser_focus

Move focus to an element, triggering focus-dependent UI changes.

browser_press_key

Press a keyboard key. Examples: "Enter", "Tab", "Escape", "ArrowDown", "Control+a".

browser_scroll

Scroll the page in a given direction.

browser_drag

Drag an element from its current position to a target element.

browser_get_accessibility_treeread-only

Get the ARIA accessibility tree of the current page as readable text. Shows the page structure and the selectors needed to interact with elements, in fewer tokens than a screenshot. The tree shows all interactive elements (buttons, inputs, links) with their roles, labels, and states — everything needed to drive browser interactions.

browser_get_urlread-only

Get the current URL of the browser session.

browser_get_titleread-only

Get the title of the current page.

browser_get_textread-only

Get the visible text content of an element or the entire page body.

browser_get_attributeread-only

Get the value of a specific attribute on an element.

browser_get_htmlread-only

Get the HTML source of an element or the full page.

browser_query_selector_allread-only

Find all elements matching a CSS selector and return their text, HTML, and attributes.

browser_screenshotread-only

Take a screenshot of the current page or a specific element. Use for visual verification or when the accessibility tree is not sufficient.

browser_generate_pdfread-only

Render the current page as a PDF document.

browser_wait_for_selectorread-only

Wait until an element matching the CSS selector is stable in the DOM. Set visible=true to also require the element to be visible (not hidden).

browser_wait_for_navigationread-only

Wait for the page to navigate to a new URL. It waits for the next navigation event, so a navigation that already finished is not seen and the call waits until timeout_ms. Pages that update without changing URL (AJAX/SPA) fire no navigation event. Optional timeout_ms (default 30000ms).

browser_waitread-only

Wait for a fixed duration. browser_wait_for_selector waits only until an element appears.

browser_evaluate

Execute JavaScript in the browser context and return the result.

browser_get_cookiesread-only

Get all cookies for the current page.

browser_set_cookies

Set one or more cookies in the browser session.

browser_clear_cookies

Clear all cookies for the current browser session.

browser_local_storage

Read, write, or clear localStorage in the current page context.

browser_new_tab

Open a new browser tab. Returns a tab_id to use with browser_switch_tab.

browser_switch_tab

Switch focus to a different browser tab.

browser_batch

Execute a sequence of browser actions in a single call against an existing session. Use this when you already know the full sequence of steps — it reduces round trips and is faster than calling each tool individually. Actions run sequentially and stop at the first failure unless stop_on_error is false. Each step result is returned in the results array at the same index. Note: screenshots in bat
