## 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 facebook-video-transcript-extractor-68dfb659 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the transcript from this public Facebook reel — https://www.facebook.com/reel/123456789 — and give me the full text of what's being said?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured transcript data (words, segments, metadata) from public Facebook videos or reels specifically, and want pay-per-successful-call pricing so failed extractions cost nothing. Prefer it over generic web scrapers when Facebook-specific parsing and normalization of caption data is needed, or when processing multiple Facebook video URLs in bulk.

## Known failure modes

- Video is private or restricted — endpoint returns empty/null transcript and no charge is applied
- Video has no public captions or subtitles enabled — transcript fields return null
- Invalid or malformed Facebook URL — request fails with an error
- Video has been deleted or is geo-restricted — extraction returns empty result
- Rate limiting or platform-side blocking — extraction may fail intermittently

## How this service works

Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a count and an items array. Each item contains the full transcript text, normalized caption segments with timing, individual words, video ID, post ID, permalink, Facebook URL, and a status field indicating success or failure of the extraction.
