## 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 gedx402-social-youtube-video-transcript-6a8f5559
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the full transcript from this YouTube video for me? Here's the URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need the spoken text transcript of a specific YouTube video by URL, especially in automated pipelines that require per-call micropayment via x402. Prefer this over YouTube's own API when you need a simple pay-per-use model without OAuth setup.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent YouTube URL returns error or empty data
- Video has no captions or transcript available, returning empty transcript
- x402 payment failure prevents request from completing
- Private or age-restricted YouTube video may be inaccessible
- Rate limiting or provider downtime results in failed request
