## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability economic-data-explorer-indicators-listing-5c1bc868
```

Example prompt: Can you show me all the available economic, demographic, and health indicators on EconDash so I can see which ones I can query — especially anything related to GDP or population?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint as a discovery step before querying specific indicator data — it lets you enumerate all 265 available indicators with their codes and metadata, so you can identify the right indicator code to use in subsequent data queries. Prefer this when you don't know the exact indicator code and need to browse or filter by category, unit, or source.

## Known failure modes

- 402 Payment Required if USDC micropayment not attached
- Empty or partial list if properties filter is malformed
- Network timeout for slow connections
- Rate limiting if called excessively in short succession
