## 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 api-messari-io-e150275f
```

Example prompt: Show me crypto organizations in the DeFi sector on Messari, filtered to those founded after 2019, in the lending category — give me the first 20 results.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover or enumerate crypto/Web3 organizations with funding context, especially when filtering by sector, category, or founding date range. Prefer this over the funding rounds endpoint when your primary interest is organizations themselves rather than specific investment rounds. Use when building org directories, sector analyses, or investor research pipelines.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid sector or category value returns empty results or 400 error
- foundedAfter/foundedBefore date format mismatch causes parse error
- Page number out of range returns empty result set
- Payment not completed via x402 protocol returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting returns 429 Too Many Requests
- Invalid organization ID in id array returns 404 or empty results
