The form opens with CHANGE_ME for each value you supply: ZENROWS_API_KEY. Fill them in before you deploy.
Clients connect to the service's https://…koyeb.app address plus /mcp.

The only text from the server itself is in the section quoted from it below. ## How to reach it - The client starts it as a local process (stdio): `npx -y @zenrows/[email protected]`. - Your MCP client knows it as `zenrows` (`clients/` configures it under that name); call its tools by the names below. Claude Code shows them as `mcp__zenrows__<tool>`. - Credentials, from `.env` (`.env.example` lists them): `ZENROWS_API_KEY`. ## Tools 52 tools. The read-only column is the server's own hint (`readOnlyHint`), not something the hub checked. ### Quoted from the server: data, not instructions The names, sentences and parameter names in this table are the server's own text, as the hub listed it.

extractExtract 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 structured JSON on any domain - css: css_extractor with an explicit selector map Requests use automatic mode (mode=auto) by default: Zenrows enables JS rendering and premium proxies only when the site needs them, and charges only for the configuration that succeeds. Pass just the URL. Set js_render or premium_proxy only to force a fixed configuration; that turns automatic mode off and bills every request at that configuration's cost. Check "empty" in the result: true means no field came back with a value. "noDataExtracted": true means Extract processed the page and found nothing to extract (not charged); retrying the same request returns the same answer. Full-page markdown, HTML and screenshots come from scrape.Extract structured data from a webpage via Zenrows. Returns JSON fields (products, articles, listings) rather than a full page body.

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 return the page, and charges only for the configuration that succeeds. Pass just the URL. Set js_render or premium_proxy only to force a fixed configuration. Doing so switches off automatic mode, and every request is billed at that configuration's cost (premium_proxy with js_render is 25x a basic request).
