## 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`):

```

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to programmatically search Amazon product listings for price comparison, market research, competitive analysis, or product sourcing without building your own Amazon scraper. Preferred over manual browsing or generic web search when structured product data (ASINs, prices, ratings) is needed at scale.

## Known failure modes

- No products found for the given search query
- Amazon rate limiting or anti-scraping blocks causing empty results
- Malformed or missing search query parameter returns an error
- Network timeout when Amazon product pages are slow to respond
- Region-specific results may vary if no locale is specified
