## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability africa-macro-indicators-api-6152b5b1
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest macroeconomic indicators for African countries — things like GDP growth, inflation, and other key economic stats — so I can use them in my emerging markets analysis?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, low-cost ($0.01 USDC) programmatic lookup of African macroeconomic indicators and are already operating in an x402 micropayment-compatible environment. It is well-suited for AI agents that need on-demand economic context about African markets without a subscription to a major data provider like World Bank API or IMF data services.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not included or invalid x402 payment header — returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid format parameter — may return default format or error
- Service unavailable due to Railway.app hosting downtime
- Empty or sparse response schema means output structure is not guaranteed
- Data may be stale if underlying source is not frequently updated
