## 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 anyapi-youtube-video-sponsors-c5dd7a2a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the sponsor segments for this YouTube video — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ — and tell me which brands are mentioned and when?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to programmatically identify sponsor segments and brand mentions within a specific YouTube video without a monthly subscription. Ideal for pay-per-request usage via x402/USDC micropayments, especially for agents that only occasionally need sponsor data rather than at high volume.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent YouTube video ID returns an error or empty result
- Video has no known sponsor segments, returning an empty sponsors list
- Rate limiting or authentication failure if the API key is missing or invalid
- Network timeout if the target YouTube page is temporarily unavailable
- Malformed request body causing a 400 Bad Request response
