## 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 china-macro-snapshot-api-cb4acb5d
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest China macro snapshot — I need GDP, CPI, PMI, the LPR rate, and the current USD/CNY exchange rate from official government data?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a single-call, official-source snapshot of China's core macro indicators (GDP, CPI, PMI, LPR, USD/CNY) without having to aggregate multiple data providers. It is the only China macro endpoint available on x402 marketplaces, making it the natural choice for agents operating in the x402 payment ecosystem. Prefer the Global Economic Bundle sibling if you also need US and EU data in one call.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient (x402 payment required)
- Data may be one month stale if official government release is delayed
- Empty or partial response if a specific indicator has not yet been published for the current period
- Network timeout if upstream government data source is temporarily unavailable
