If the volume for Justice League Dark isn't specified, its volume 1
Zatanna Abilities:
Our current justification for Ice Manipulation is attempting to freeze Dr Manhattan, but her freezing a tsunami that was going to cover a city in Justice League 2011 #17 is a better example
This is used for resurrection, but there are better examples of Zatanna herself doing it like when she revived Phantom Stranger when his heart stopped beating by giving him life and returning his soul to his body - The Phantom Stranger 2011 #8
Biological Manipulation: In the scan used for Organic Manipulation, she removed Eclipso's mouth, which I think fits biological manipulation more than organic
Fire Manipulation: Her profile has lighting a cigar as justification, but its good to add something that implies she can shoot it as well, like when her cousin used backwards magic to shoot blue fire - Raven: Daughter of Darkness #8
Fusionism: Merged with Upside Down Man in body and mind - Justice League Dark Vol 2 #27 and then entered his mind to attempt to control it and broke him from the inside after controlling his actions - Justice League Dark Vol 2 #28 though I can't remember if she was amped here
Immersion: In the aforementioned scan, she entered Upside Down Man's mind by merging with it. Used a spell that summoned a gate to the Hell that was part of Phantom Stranger's consciousness, though it took some time - Trinity of Sin: The Phantom Stranger #9. Entered a person's psyche to view their memories - Justice League Dark #31
Invisibility: When her magic power was amped by the Wild Area, made her team invisible - Justice League Dark #17
Acausality: Remains relatively unchanged from changes in history from things like Zero Hour and Flashpoint, which is true since her Pre Crisis origin was the same as her post crisis origin - The DC Book: A Vast and Vibrant Multiverse Simply Explained (this is a guidebook published by DC with help from various DC authors)
Portal Creation: Creates a portal to Dr Mist's location - Justice League Dark #12
With magic, can grant people resistance to Corruption: Protects herself and other from Pandora's box which corrupted the minds of Wonder Woman and Shazam - Justice League Dark #23
Platform Creation: Made a flying platform that the JLD can fly on - Justice League Dark #34
Stuff that applies to magic users in general:
Empowerment l and Statistics Amplification: Because the power of magic comes from belief, a magic user can believe that they are more powerful to make them stronger, which is how the JLD damaged Upside Down Man or blocked attacks from him, though Zatanna herself was getting stronger also because of Darkworld - Justice League Dark Vol 2 #26. The power of magic is from belief - JLD Vol 2 #12, Wonder Woman states magic is powered by belief - JLD Vol 2 #14
Supernatural Willpower: Magic users use belief and the will to shape reality around them - Justice League Dark Vol 2 #2. Magic users use sheer force of will to turn something from myth and dream into reality - Justice League Dark Vol 2 #25
Matter Manipulation on a quark level (for magic users that manipulate matter): Magic users shape reality through manipulating the quarks within atoms - Black Manta #1
Creation: Magic doesn't shape 1 form of energy to another like a Green Lantern, it creates - Justice League 2018 #42
Weakness: Because the power of magic comes from belief, a magic user would obviously be weaker if they don't believe enough. In the scans I posted for Fusionism, Upside Down Man grew weaker because she altered his mind to make him believe that his magic has a cost and he wasn't infinite
