description: Renders the named zone with no targeting data and returns its configured content. Useful for fetching static or anonymous zones from a server-rendered page or backend service. Identity (`email`, `partner_user_id`, `person_id`) and additional targeting fields are not accepted on this GET form - use `POST /v5/zones/{zone_name}` to pass them.

description: Renders the named zone, merging the request body's open data map into the targeting context. Recognised identity fields are `email`, `partner_user_id`, `person_id`, and `event_time` (ISO 8601). Additional keys are forwarded to the zone's targeting evaluator and creative renderer. Returns the zone's configured content (HTML, JavaScript, JSON, or plain text) plus `X-Extole-*` headers describing the matched campaign, frontend controller, creative, and input event. If no identity is provided the zone renders against an anonymous profile - prefer supplying at least one identity field for known visitors. Authenticated with a USER_SUPPORT scope access token.

/v5/zones:
post:
description: Renders a zone using a request body that carries both the zone name and the targeting data. Functionally equivalent to `POST /v5/zones/{zone_name}`; the path-based form is the recommended primary entry point. Use this form when the calling code constructs the full request payload upstream and prefers a single body shape. Returns the zone's configured content (HTML, JavaScript, JSON, or plain text) plus `X-Extole-*` headers describing the matched campaign and creative. Authenticated with a USER_SUPPORT scope access token.
