## 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 apify-store-actor-search-via-stableapify-dace52bb -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search the Apify Store for actors related to 'LinkedIn scraping' and show me the top 10 results.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to discover or search for Apify actors programmatically using the x402 micropayment protocol, especially when you want to find the right actor before starting a run, or when browsing the Apify Store catalog by category or owner without maintaining a full Apify subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure via x402 protocol if USDC balance is insufficient
- Empty result set if search query matches no actors
- Invalid pagination parameters (offset/limit out of range) returning an error
- Rate limiting or API unavailability on Apify's backend
- Malformed search query exceeding 200 character limit
