## 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 datavault-current-time-by-timezone-4274d0ba -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What's the current date and time in the America/New_York timezone?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative current time for a specific IANA timezone and want a pay-per-call micro-payment model via USDC on Base, without needing to integrate a separate time API or manage API keys.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid timezone string returns an error or unexpected result
- Missing timezone field may default to UTC or return an error
- Network timeout or Vercel cold start causes delayed response
- Malformed JSON input returns 400-level error
