## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability agents-openwebninja-com-people-also-ask-google-search-3489a937
```

Example prompt: What are the People Also Ask questions Google shows when someone searches for 'apple inc' in the US — include the answer text and source links for each question.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need the 'People Also Ask' SERP feature data from Google — related questions and their snippet answers — rather than organic search results, news, or other SERP features. Ideal for SEO analysis, content planning, FAQ generation, and question-intent research where the PAA block's structured Q&A format is the target. Prefer this over generic search endpoints when you want question-answer pairs surfaced by Google rather than ranked URLs.

## Known failure modes

- Query returns no PAA results — empty array returned with status success
- Invalid or unsupported country code (gl) — may fall back to default or return error
- fetch_answers=true but Google provides no extractable answer — answer field is null
- Rate limit or credit exhaustion — API returns payment/credit error
- Malformed query string — may return status error with request_id

## How this service works

Get the People Also Ask block for a Google search query, optionally with the answer body and source link for each question.  

  Each call consumes 2 request credits, or 3 credits when `fetch_answers=true` AND the query returns at least one question.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with an array of People Also Ask items. Each item contains the question text; when fetch_answers is true, each item also includes a plain-text answer body (nullable) and a source object with the URL, page title, and domain (nullable). The response also echoes back the request parameters and a unique request ID.
