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

Example prompt: Can you pull me a list of up to 50 apartment properties in Austin, TX — I need their names, URLs, and location info in structured format.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured apartment listing data from Apartments.com by city and state, especially when you need property names and URLs in bulk without paying for failed runs. Prefer this over general web scrapers when you specifically need Apartments.com data in a clean JSON format without building your own scraper.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if city/state format is invalid or unsupported (ZIP codes and street addresses not accepted)
- Empty response if no listings found for the given city
- Rate limiting or timeout if too many items requested
- Partial results if maxItems limit is set too low
- URL filters (price, bedrooms) in startUrls are not supported and may be ignored

## How this service works

Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a count of results and an array of property items, each containing the property's ID, URL, city, state, property name, and sitemap last modified date. Failed or empty runs are not billed.
