Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Zillow API every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Zillow API — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no tool list for Zillow API?

The server answered our handshake with an authorization challenge, so it is running — but it will not describe its tools to an anonymous client. To see them you need to connect with your own credentials. We record it as alive, not as broken: 100.0% of checks in the last 24 hours got a reply.

Is Zillow API working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 358 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Zillow API?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address. You will need your own key: it refuses anonymous clients.

Does Zillow API need an API key?

Yes. Every time we knock, Zillow API answers with an authorization challenge instead of its tool list — that is how we know it is running and gated rather than broken. Bring your own credentials and it will talk.

How fast is Zillow API?

It answers our handshake in 358 ms on average, which is faster than 46% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Zillow API open source?

We cannot say that it is: written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub, but no licence is declared, and without one the code is not open source by default.
