Switching from NopeCHA
Replace NopeCHA's POST /v1/token/turnstile call with createTask, sending the page URL as websiteURL and the sitekey as websiteKey.
Poll getTaskResult with the taskId instead of GET /v1/token/turnstile with the job ID, and read solution.token.
Send your ZeroCaptcha key, which starts with zc_live_, as clientKey in the body instead of an Authorization header.
Drop the proxy unless the site needs one: TurnstileTaskProxyless solves without it; with TurnstileTask, use an HTTP or HTTPS proxy.
Where ZeroCaptcha differs
An API only: there is no browser extension, so the token comes from an HTTP call your code makes.
Proxyless by default: NopeCHA's Turnstile token API requires a proxy; ZeroCaptcha's TurnstileTaskProxyless needs none.
Paid per solved task from a prepaid balance, with no subscription, no daily quota and no free tier.
Only Cloudflare Turnstile and Cloudflare challenge pages: stay with a multi-type provider if you need image or reCAPTCHA solving.
Cloudflare challenge pages work too, through your own proxy: a challenge task returns cf_clearance with the user agent it was issued for.

Questions
Can I use NopeCHA's client code with ZeroCaptcha?
No. NopeCHA's token API has its own request format, while ZeroCaptcha speaks the createTask format and 2Captcha's in.php and res.php. The switch is a new pair of calls: createTask, then getTaskResult.
Does ZeroCaptcha have a free tier or a browser extension like NopeCHA?
Neither. ZeroCaptcha is a paid API: every task is charged from a prepaid balance only when its token is ready, and a task that fails costs nothing.
Is ZeroCaptcha affiliated with NopeCHA?
No. ZeroCaptcha is independent and is not affiliated with NopeCHA.
