## 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 apexapi-pdf-extract-82343290 -d '<json body>'
```

- Malformed or encrypted PDF may fail to extract content
- Empty or image-only PDFs may return no text
- Request missing required query/URL parameter returns a 400-level error
- Payment failure via x402 returns 402 Payment Required
