## 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`):

zero fetch --capability fetcher-sh-yelp-place-reviews-api-e87b648a
```

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured Yelp review data for a known business (by Yelp place ID) without setting up OAuth or a Yelp developer account. It is ideal for AI agents that need to quickly retrieve customer sentiment, ratings, and review text for local businesses on a pay-per-call basis. Prefer this over direct Yelp API integrations when you want frictionless, per-call access billed in USDC.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent Yelp place ID returns a 404 or empty result
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance returns a 402 error
- Yelp rate limits or access restrictions may cause upstream failures
- Business with no reviews returns an empty reviews array
- Malformed place ID format may cause a 400 bad request error
