## 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-scrape-residential-proxy-url-fetcher-6eb0ce9a
```

Example prompt: Fetch the content of https://techcrunch.com/latest using a residential proxy in Germany and give me the clean extracted text.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to fetch web page content through residential proxies to avoid IP blocks or access geo-restricted content, especially when clean text extraction is needed. Prefer this over direct HTTP fetches when target sites block datacenter IPs, or when you need content from a specific geographic location. Differs from a bare proxy relay in that it also extracts and cleans the page text automatically.

## Known failure modes

- Target URL is unreachable or returns non-200 status — status_code field reflects the upstream HTTP error
- Invalid or unsupported country code — may fall back to default country or return an error
- URL is malformed or missing — returns 400-level error
- Target site actively blocks all proxy traffic — may return empty content or 403
- Timeout on slow or large pages — elapsed_ms may be high and content may be truncated

## How this service works

Scraping as a service: fetch any URL through residential proxies with content extraction.

## Output

A JSON object containing the fetched page's URL, title, extracted clean text content, HTTP status code, proxy country used, elapsed time in milliseconds, fetch method used, and content length in bytes.
