## 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 fetcher-sh-google-news-language-regions-lookup-17db8ed8
```

Example prompt: What languages and regional editions does Google News support? I want to know which language-region combos I can use when pulling news headlines.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover or validate which language and region combinations are accepted by Google News before constructing news search or headline queries. Prefer this over hardcoding locale strings, especially when building multi-region or multilingual news pipelines.

## Known failure modes

- Network or upstream scraping failure returns a 5xx error
- Invalid or malformed properties parameter may return an empty or error response
- Google News changes its supported locale list upstream, causing stale or incorrect results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (402) if USDC payment or prepaid credit is insufficient

## How this service works
