## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability bea-personal-income-data-f9c911ff
```

Example prompt: Pull the BEA personal income data for 2024 from the ETF & Macro Intelligence service so I can see how US household income trends relate to crypto ETF inflows.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured US personal income data sourced from the BEA for macro-level financial analysis, particularly in contexts involving crypto ETF flow research, institutional fund analysis, or correlating macroeconomic trends with market movements. It is ideal for agents that need clean, pre-fetched BEA data without building direct BEA API integrations, and when per-query micropayment cost ($0.01 USDC) is acceptable.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported year parameter returns empty data array with success:true
- Year with no available BEA data returns empty data array
- Payment not completed (402) blocks access to the endpoint
- Network or upstream BEA data unavailability causes request failure
- Missing required year parameter may return incomplete or default results

## How this service works

Crypto ETF flows, institutional fund data, and US macroeconomic events.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a success flag, the endpoint path, and a data array containing BEA personal income statistics for the requested year. The data array may include time-series income figures, component breakdowns, or aggregate totals as sourced from the BEA.
