## 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 apollo-io-lead-generation-mcp-5c1026fb -d '<json body>'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need programmatic access to Apollo.io's lead database without managing your own Apollo.io API credentials or subscription. Ideal for agents automating sales prospecting workflows, building prospect lists on demand, or enriching CRM pipelines with B2B contact data. Prefer this over direct Apollo.io API access when you want a pay-per-call model via x402 micropayments rather than a recurring subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed query string returns empty results or error
- Apollo.io rate limits exceeded causing throttled or failed responses
- Overly broad search criteria returning too many or low-quality leads
- Missing required search parameters resulting in API rejection
- Payment failure via x402 protocol causing request not to be processed
