## 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 aldi-australia-product-scraper-a64f99f1 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search the Aldi Australia catalogue for 'coffee' and 'chocolate biscuits', return up to 50 results per term sorted by price ascending, and give me each product's name, brand, price, and price per unit.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, machine-readable product data from Aldi Australia's online catalogue — including prices, brands, SKUs, and unit pricing — without building your own scraper. It is especially useful for price monitoring, grocery comparison apps, or catalogue ingestion workflows targeting the Australian market. You only pay for successful, non-empty runs.

## Known failure modes

- No products found for the given search term or URL — returns empty items array (not charged)
- Invalid or inaccessible URL passed in startUrls — run fails silently or returns empty
- Aldi Australia website structure changes may break scraping temporarily
- Rate limiting or blocking by Aldi's website may cause empty or partial results
- Malformed input schema (e.g. invalid sortBy enum value) returns an error

## How this service works

Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.

## Output

A JSON object containing a count of results and an array of product items, each with fields for SKU, name, brand, price, was price (sale/markdown), price display string, price per unit, and description. Empty or failed runs are not charged.
