## 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 datapipe-image-search-api-2c1066f6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you search for 10 images of the Golden Gate Bridge at sunset and give me the results?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs programmatic access to image search results for a given keyword or phrase, especially within a multi-step pipeline that also requires news, Reddit, or web scraping from the same DataPipe provider. Prefer this over general web search endpoints when image-specific results are needed and x402 micropayment on Base chain is already configured.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'query' field returns validation error
- Payment failure on Base chain blocks request
- Query returns zero results for highly obscure or restricted terms
- Upstream image search provider unavailable causing 5xx error
- Invalid 'num' parameter type causes schema validation failure
