## 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 didit-api-didit-phone-otp-send-2e8081f9 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Send a one-time verification code via SMS to +1-555-867-5309 so the user can verify their phone number for identity confirmation.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to verify a user's phone number as part of an identity or KYC workflow, particularly when integrated with the Didit identity platform. Prefer this over generic SMS APIs when the OTP is part of a broader identity verification pipeline that may include AML screening or database validation.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed phone number format returns an error
- Phone number not reachable or unsupported region
- Rate limiting if too many OTPs sent to the same number in a short period
- Network or SMS gateway delivery failure
- Authentication/authorization failure if API credentials are invalid
