## 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 ecb-fx-rate-currency-converter-b1a1e38e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Convert 2500 USD to EUR using the ECB daily reference fixing — I need the official rate and the rounded converted amount for an invoice I'm preparing.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need an official, auditable ECB daily reference rate for invoicing, accounting, compliance, or financial reporting — not for live trading prices. It is ideal when you need a defensible, institution-backed fixing rather than a real-time mid-market rate. Use it over generic FX APIs when ECB provenance and a staleness indicator are important for your use case.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported currency code returns an error — ECB only covers a subset of world currencies
- Future or pre-1999 dates may not have available ECB fixings
- Weekend/holiday dates return the most recent prior business day fixing with staleDays > 0
- Missing required amount or currency parameters returns a validation error
- Network or upstream ECB data unavailability may cause transient failures

## Output

Returns the converted amount, a rounded string representation, the ECB fixing rate used, the fixing date (YYYY-MM-DD), how many weekdays stale the rate is (0 = current), the currency pair, source attribution (European Central Bank), and a disclaimer — everything needed to document an FX conversion on an invoice or financial record.
