## 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 compliapi-email-sanctions-screener-151c6aa7
```

Example prompt: Run a sanctions screen on the email address john.doe@example.com — check it against OFAC SDN and any other global sanctions lists, and tell me if there are any matches with source links.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to screen a specific email address against OFAC SDN and other global sanctions lists during onboarding, KYC review, or pre-payment compliance checks. Prefer this over manual lookups or general identity verification services when you need per-list match granularity with source URLs. Choose the domain or wallet screening siblings when the identifier type differs from an email address.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed email address returns a validation error
- No match found returns an empty matches array (not an error)
- Unrecognized list slug in the optional lists parameter may return an error or be ignored
- Network timeout or upstream list unavailability may return a 5xx error
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns a 402 or 429 response

## How this service works

## Output
