Why is the extension updated frequently?
Zillow Data Exporter is an extension that exports data from Zillow to a CSV or Excel (.xlsx) file. As such, it depends entirely on the Zillow website and the data it provides.
However, that means that if Zillow changes their website, the extension will not be updated straight away as I need a little bit of time to understand what has changed and how to fix the problem.
Because of this, the extension is updated every time the Zillow website is updated. There is simply no way around it.
I also update the extension when a user reports an issue or when it needs to handle data more efficiently.
When are the new updates published?
The new version was published on September 6th, 2025.
I try my hardest to stay on top of things and to release updates in a timely manner. However, I am not able to guarantee that the extension will be updated every time the Zillow website is updated.
If the extension stops working, you can let me know by contacting me here or on X (formerly Twitter) and I will try to fix the problem as soon as possible.
How to update the extension to the latest version?
Normally, when a new version of Zillow Data Exporter is published, it is installed automatically in your Chrome browser. Sometimes, though, the extension is not updated automatically.
This is when you need to manually update the extension:
- Open the Chrome browser.
- Go to the Extensions page.

The extension should now be updated to the version 2.0.0 (as of September 6th, 2025).
