## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability agents-zenrows-com-zenrows-fetch-a-page-5726acc5
```

Example prompt: Fetch the full HTML of https://www.example.com/products using JavaScript rendering and route it through a US residential proxy so we can get past any anti-bot protection.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to retrieve content from public web pages, especially those protected by anti-bot systems or requiring JavaScript rendering. It is ideal when you need flexible output formats (HTML, Markdown, JSON, screenshot), structured extraction without writing parsers, or geo-targeted proxy routing. Prefer this over generic HTTP fetch libraries when the target site has bot protection, uses client-side rendering, or when you need to interact with the page before capturing content.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error response
- Anti-bot protection not bypassed even with premium proxy — page returns incomplete or blocked content
- js_render=false on a JavaScript-heavy page returns empty or incomplete HTML
- wait_for selector never appears — request times out
- Invalid API key returns 401 unauthorized
- Insufficient credits returns 402 payment required
- Rate limiting on the target site causes failed fetch

## How this service works

Retrieve a URL through Zenrows and return its content. The same operation covers Extract (`extract=auto` or `css_extractor`), format conversion (`response_type`), screenshots and structured output, because they are configurations of one request rather than separate endpoints.

## Output

Returns the page content in the requested format: raw HTML by default, or Markdown, plain text, PDF, or structured JSON depending on response_type and extract settings. If screenshot=true, returns an image of the above-the-fold view. If css_extractor or extract=auto is used, returns a JSON object with the extracted fields. If json_response=true, may include network request logs.

Extract works on any prepared domain, with any active API key (prepare a new one with `POST /extract/prepared-domains`), and is currently free on top of the Fetch cost.
