## 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 freelancermap-project-search-scraper-9a637d4e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search FreelancerMap for remote Python freelance projects in Germany posted in the last 14 days, sorted by newest, and return up to 50 results.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, machine-readable freelance project data from FreelancerMap specifically — including skill tags, project IDs, and category labels — without building your own scraper. It is ideal for agents that monitor job markets, match candidates to projects, or conduct competitive analysis across European and global freelance markets. The pay-per-call model with no charge for failed/empty runs makes it cost-efficient for exploratory or low-hit-rate searches.

## Known failure modes

- Empty result set returns count 0 with an empty items array and is not billed
- Invalid enum value for country, category, remote, or contractType returns a validation error
- FreelancerMap site changes or blocks may cause degraded or missing fields in returned items
- maxResults of 0 attempts to fetch all available pages, which may time out for broad queries
- Supplying startUrls overrides keyword/country search, so mismatched URLs may yield unrelated results

## How this service works

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

## Output

A JSON object containing a count of matched projects and an array of project items, each with fields for URL, title, required skills, category, industry, project ID, description, and contract type. Only non-empty successful runs are charged.
