Hey! I’ve been trying to figure out how to find the json field on zillow too. What worked for me was using the "Inspect" tool and searching for "json" in the page source.

Sometimes it’s hidden in a script tag, so you’ll need to parse the HTML to extract it. If you’re using Python, check out the `json` and `re` modules. They’re super helpful for this kind of thing.

Also, make sure to use headers and proxies to avoid getting blocked. Good luck!
Yo, I feel your pain. Scraping Zillow is no joke. The json data is usually in the network tab under XHR requests. Just filter by "json" and look for something like "search" or "listings."

If you’re still stuck, try using a tool like Puppeteer. It’s great for scraping dynamic content.

Also, don’t forget to rotate your IPs and use headers to avoid getting blocked. Good luck with your project!
